Hi, I just installed Mandrake 9.1 on a Dell Inspiron 9.1 and I've got several issues:
I'm using the kernel linux-2.4.21-0.13mdkenterprise 1°) The harddisk is really slow : hdparm shows a transfer rate of 3.5Mb/s I tried to activate the dma using the command: hdparm -c1d1 /dev/hdc and I got the following output: /dev/hdc: setting 32-bit IO_support flag to 1 setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted IO_support = 1 (32-bit) using_dma = 0 (off) 2°) If I switch ACPI on in lilo.conf, the PC just freeze after having loaded the kernel I trued to recompile without APM and without APIC but then the PC reboot after having loaded the kernel Any ideas how I can solve those issues. Issue 1 is the most important up to now. Thanks --ERic
