switch it from UDMA5 to PIO0, the only difference during boot is:

PIO0 is outrageously slow, use PIO4 (very slow as well but at least somewhat faster). Anyway, this won't help with Linux...

ide2: BM-DMA at 0xa000-0xa007, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio

instead of

ide2: BM-DMA at 0xa000-0xa007, BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:DMA

You should specify the option ide=nodma to the kernel to disable IDE core from using DMA.

Please help me getting DMA to work with this controller.

For starters, please try the driver from 2.6.20-rc1 and (if that doesn't help) from the -mm tree. I rewrote it and it's working OK on at least my HPT370...

Thanks in advance,
