I get a kernel panic with the controller mode in BIOS set to AHCI with Fedora Core 6. Once returned to IDE (setting used since computer was built) I booted up. Added information: In Fedora 7 I can not burn DVDs or CDROM using K3b with the Zip drive connected. Some preformatting (I assume) is done rendering the CD/DVD useless then got an I/O error. In Fedora 8 I am able to burn a CDROM using K3b but DVDs behave as with Fedora 7. All is well when the Zip is totaly removed. This Zip drive also worked under Microsoft 2000 { which was removed over a year ago ;-) }. Fedora Core 6, Fedora 7, and Fedora 8 are all installed on this machine. This drive did not work with a Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD on this machine. I intend to try this Zip drive on another motherboard with the above live CD. - --RoyBoy626 Fedora Core 6 information (computer booted December 11th with Zip disk inserted): # uname -r 2.6.22.5-49.fc6 # blkid /dev/hdb4: SEC_TYPE="msdos" LABEL="ZIP-100" UUID="XXXX-YYYY" TYPE="vfat" from dmesg: ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx JMB361: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:03:00.1 PCI: Enabling device 0000:03:00.1 (0000 -> 0001) ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:03:00.1[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 JMB361: chipset revision 2 JMB361: 100% native mode on irq 17 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:03:00.1 to 64 ide0: BM-DMA at 0xc400-0xc407, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio ide1: BM-DMA at 0xc408-0xc40f, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio Probing IDE interface ide0... hda: LITE-ON DVDRW SOHW-1693S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hdb: IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI, ATAPI FLOPPY drive hda: host side 80-wire cable detection failed, limiting max speed to UDMA33 hda: selected mode 0x42 hdb: selected mode 0x21 ide0 at 0xcc00-0xcc07,0xc882 on irq 17 Probing IDE interface ide1...
