Hello, I wrote:
I've had a Highpoint Rocket 1540 (not "RocketRAID") SATA controller for a while now, using a proprietary binary driver from Highpoint in a linux 2.4 kernel. The chipset is an hpt374. The hpt366 driver freezes on boot, as reported by others.
Can we see a bootlog please?
... and the output of 'lspci -v' too. I wonders if R1540 could be identified via the subsystem ID -- SATA bridges HPT uses seem to have limitations WRT DMA modes, i.e. no MWDMA and UDMA modes 0, 4 and higher only are supported...
