Hi, folks!
This is your early warning that F7Test4 - the last of the pre-F7 test
releases - is coming out NEXT WEEK.
IF YOU HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH DISK DETECTION AND/OR OTHER
DISK-RELATED THINGS, please read this!
One of the biggest changes in F7 is the new IDE driver stack, which uses
libata (like the SATA drivers do). Not only are IDE hard drives now
called /dev/sdX, but they're using new and interesting code. This could
be (and has been) causing some problems relating to drive detection at
boot time and install time, especially with upgrades from FC6 and
earlier.
Here's a couple of common examples:
Bug #225026: pata_amd not loaded so no drives found
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225026
Already fixed for Test4.
sata_sil causes system freeze
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232991
This only affects one machine that we've seen - if you've seen it too,
please let us know!
please don't forget this one:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=179564
it worked on test 3 so its a regression!
