Hi Jeff,

We've briefly met at Deauville while you were working with mandriva
I hope everything is fine with you - I myself have just been laid
off, just about \
six years after joining mandrake ...
Anyway, back to business.
I have a Promise sataII TX2+ cards, with a pdc 20575.

I have just tried stock 2.6.17-rc4 and applied
2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1.patch.bz2
I am only detecting the two sata lines.
the motherboard is smp, and has pdc20265 onboard. there are 4 drives
attached to \
the TX2+ (two sata, two pata)
If I am not mistaken, driver version 1.04 is the latest one you have > ?
Promise PATA-on-SATA-cards support lives in
libata-dev.git#promise-sata-pata, until someone cleans it up.

This is not found in 2.6.17-rc4 nor 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1.  It is
found in Andrew Morton's -mm tree, though.

It's not in 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1?

No. -libata1 only contains #upstream, not other useful for-testing changes such as #promise-sata-pata.


Did you remove that support from the libata patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/ ?

2.6.15-libata1.patch added Promise PATA-on-SATA for my PC20378 (see my
email from earlier today)...

In fact, back on 09/09/05, Matt (Reuther?) pointed me to your patches
(and CC'd the list) for exactly that reason:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-ide&m=112629381132249&w=2

I'm confused...

Just simply that 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1 patch didn't include "other stuff", unlike the other patches.

	Jeff
