I was looking briefly at the port mapping issue on 4-port Promise controllers yesterday and noticed a bit of programming magic in Promise's driver that Linux doesn't do, and which affects two of the four ports. That _could_ explain your issues. /Mikael
Just as a note, I filed the issue that this thread is about as a kernel bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7516 I am also experiencing the port-mapping issue you mention with the SATA300 TX4, but I believe that the port mapping problem and the excess status messages are separate and unrelated problems.
