Re: Problem - IRQ timeouts with Promise TX4

Throw it away... I tried for 2 weeks to get it to work and was unsuccessful, plus didn't recieve much help from this list. I decided to use the on-board HPT and used software Raid instead... has been running for 1 month no problems... Mandrake 8.1, Oracle8i, MySQL, Apache, Tomcat, Oracle9iAS Web, Samba (as PDC for 10 computers), master back up server... dual PIII 1 GhZ, 1 GB Ram, 160GB storage (Raid 1+0) plus 1x 80GB backup drive... (All for under $2400 6 months ago)

But if anyone could get the TX4, my raid would run faster and I could add another 400GB.

Hello everyone.

First of all, thank all of you that have worked on this driver.

Now, the problem. I installed a TX4 into my Dell PowerEdge 1300 and am
having IRQ timeout problems. I'm not sure if it is a RAID driver issue or
an ATA driver issue, but I thought I'd start here.

When booting, I get the following:

PDC20268: IDE controller on PCI bus 03 dev 08
PDC20268: chipset revision 2
PDC20268: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later

The first two drives get seen just fine, but hdi and hdk fall over. I cannot
do anything with the array after booting.

I suspect it's an IRQ problem, but am not sure.

It's mystifying me, and my patience is growing short with this.

I have looked on google, but nothing pops up.

Can anyone help?

Jeremy
