Hi,
I am currently running RH 6.2 with the kernel sources updated to
2.2.14-12.
I have installed two Promise PCI IDE cards. I would like to make a
custom kernel after patching my sources with the Unified IDE Patch.
Question: which IDE patch to use? After visiting the ftp site, I was a
Hi,
This is slightly off topic but a lot of people here seem to be using Andre's
IDE patch for 2.2.14. I am just curious as to how you got it working. I am
trying to apply over raid 2.2.14b1 which applies fine but the kernel doesn't
compile. I even tried it without the raid patches
Andre, Thanks so much for the reply. In my case I am using a BE6
motherboard made my ABIT. This mother board has all 4 IDE channels build
into it, so there is no PCI card. However when looking at the way the
BIOS acts, I think the motherboard emulates a PCI card with this chipset.
So even thoug
# LILO configuration file

# Start LILO global section
append="mem=255M pci=reverse maxcpus=2"

This it the top of my lilo.conf file, so yes.

In order to get the off board cards to boot you have to enable the option
first, now comes the FUN!
You are now required to determine the PCI card slot order.
Since LILO does not like to boot drives beyond the fourth device, in IDE
land. You must call "pci=reverse" to invert the pci-dev

Andre, as you may remember from a prior email, I am anxious to get my
HPT366 controller chipset working. At present I am using 2.2.12 with
patches: ide.2.2.12.19991014.patch & raid0145-19990824-2.2.11. The system
fails to boot when a drive is connected to either IDE3 or IDE4. In my
case, it's mor
