On an intel d945gnt board. Centos 4.4 with ICH8 works correctly, because my board let me setup the SATA as Legacy (E)IDE (tested), and also as SATA UHCI (tested). Note that im talking about UHCI and *not* AHCI. On 2/9/07, kuilin lu <lukuilin@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
as far as to CentOS 4.4, a work-around solution for Optiplex 745 ICH8 controller is to add "all-generic-ide" as a kernel parameter during installation. The sata disk is recognised as "/dev/hda" , but the disk speed is actually normal, as the followings: hdparm -tT /dev/hda /dev/hda: Timing cached reads: 4776 MB in 2.00 seconds = 2388.36 MB/sec Timing buffered disk reads: 182 MB in 3.02 seconds = 60.29 MB/sec please dont't forget to add "all-generic-ide" again in grub.conf at the first boot. sles 10 (2.6.16.21-0.8-smp) works well on Optiplex 745. So I think a final solution is using RHEL 5 that we should be waiting at this moment. I ask everyone's pardon for my poor english. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
