Bug#666506: IDE devices are not recognized, so system is not bootable from an IDE hard disk ("IDE support disabled")

2012-04-02 Thread Fernando Cerezal
Hello Jonathan,
it works, adding that module my devices are recognized.

Perhaps Debian should include all chipsets drivers. I know how to
report this, but when Theses linux-images enter in stable, there can
be users which systems will can not boot.

Thank you very much for your time and patience.

Somehow I thought this was an old chip and didn't have a libata driver.
However it is still apparently available, has been used on some recent
motherboards, and obviously does have this new driver available.  So
this is a proper change, whether or not the driver works for Fernando.

Ben.

Ah!  Ok, let's see.

| 04:05.0 IDE interface [0101]: Integrated Technology Express, Inc. IT8213 IDE 
Controller [1283:8213] (prog-if 85 [Master SecO PriO])

Please test the attached patch by performing the following steps
(roughly based on [1]):

 0. Prerequisites

apt-get install build-essential fakeroot
apt-get build-dep linux-2.6

 1. Get the source

apt-get source linux-2.6
cd linux-2.6-

 2. Patch it

patch -p0 < 

 3. Build it

fakeroot debian/rules source
fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_amd64_none_amd64

 4. Test it (as root)

dpkg -i ../
reboot

Hope that helps,
Jonathan

Current Debian kernels get PATA support using the libata facility
(see CONFIG_PATA_* in the .config).  Please attach messages from
your failed boot, as collected with netconsole or a serial console,
or, failing that, a photograph of the screen.

Please also attach full "dmesg" and "lspci -vvnn" output from a
successful boot so we can get to know your hardware.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
