Kernel Oops with HighPoint RocketRAID ATA133 aka HPT372A/N since kernel 2.6 Now tested with kernel 2.6.17-rc4
Kernel is on bootable CD-ROM Modules are loaded from initrd
This is what I copied from screen:

Please try my latest patches. This one should fix this (and oops should be gone):

all patches applied, but I still get Kernel Oops :-(
some smal difference here:
HPT372A: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:01:0a.0 ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [APC1] enabled at IRQ 16 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:0a.0[A] -> Link [APC1] -> GSI 16 (level, high) -> IRQ 18 HPT372A: chipset revision 2 HPT372A: 100% native mode on irq 18 + HPT37X: no clock data saved by BIOS + HPT3xxN detected, FREQ: 124, PLL: 45 + HPT37xN unknown bus timing [48 4].
Hm, the BIOS seems to behave nastier than expected -- looks like it reprograms DPLL but doesn't save the initial f_CNT (needed to determine the PCI clock). Well, I know that it always sets DPLL to 50 MHz, no matter what's the chip, so will try to work around this... :-/
but the rest is the same ...
This (otherwise incorrect) patch should eliminate the oops on HPT372: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.17-rc1/2.6.17-rc1-mm2/broken-out/hpt366-fix-segfault-during-init.patch The clocking however will remain invalid...
