I have a LYCeSATA-4x pci card that is port multiplier compatible (it works fine
under win xp) that is only showing one of 5 attached drives when attached to
a Redhat 5 computer, with both 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 and 2.6.23.1.
The SATA link shows as up for the one recognized drive, the other four
drives show the link down.
Any sugguestions as to what may be the problem?
A subset of what I consider the relavant portion of dmesg
for the
2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 kernel is:
