You need 7.2 or later, at least in the kernel. Civileme
Re: [newbie] Asus A7V Ata 100 Controller
hey, could you post the out put of hdparm -Tt /dev/hde for me? I've been tweaking my drive settings and I can't seem to get the drive on ATA100 controller to perform even equal to how it did on the ATA66 controller. I get: [root@ilinisa abe]# hdparm -Tt /dev/hde /dev/hde: Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 1.04 seconds =123.08 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 7.16 seconds = 8.94 MB/sec [root@ilinisa abe]# Abe Robert Wertzler wrote: > > On Saturday 27 January 2001 09:30, you wrote: > > > > Hi there, > > > > I need to know how to get linux mandrake 7.1 to see the drives on my ATA > > 100 controller, when I run the commands ide2=0x8400,0x8002 > > ide3=0x7800,0x7402 my system will see the drives attached to the controller > > then give me will just "hang there my kernel will not boot any further.

Re: [newbie] Asus A7V Ata 100 Controller
hey wayne, let me be te first to say that you should turn off HTML mail as it will enrage some otherwise perfectly coherent people to the point of insanity. So, if you want to reach the widest possible group of people for answers to your questions and generally be a good member of the online community, send all your email as plain ASCII text. As far as your motherboard goes, my first thought is that those addresses might not be the ones that are actually in use on your machine. If this is a dual boot machine you can find those I/O addresses in the device mangler under windows. You use the first four addresses and add 2 to the second and fourth. Lke this 8400-8407 8000-8003 7800-7807 7400-7403 yields ide2=0x8400,0x8002 ide3=0x7800,0x7402 If those numbers are correct for your machine then I don't know what your problem might be. I have limited experience with trouble shooting ATA100 controllers on A7V's because I've been lucky so far good luck!
