G'day all,
Rehash of an old problem. I've done a bit of homework and found this only occurs on the last 2 ports
of the card. If I take the drives from ports 3&4 and put them on a SIL3112 I've got lying around,
then the system works perfectly.
Diving deeper, the below problem only surfaces when *writing* to a drive on the last 2 ports. I can
read as much as you like from the drives after bootup and it all goes swimmingly well, but on the
1st write the system dies. Writing to ports 1&2 works perfectly well.
Like I've said previously, the system is a bit of a beater test system so I'm happy to keep
looking/playing if anyone is interested.
I've tried the HPT37X ATA driver and it runs nicely, except on any drive error it disables DMA and
cripples the machine.
In the meantime, I'll keep adding some printk's and try and narrow it down a bit further.
