And please make them www.kernel.org kernels, not Ubuntu ones. /Mikael > On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 1:28 AM, Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Mike Cui wrote: > >> Hi, > >> > >> I tried to update to Ubuntu 8.10 from 8.04 last week, and noticed that > >> after the update the sata_promise driver can no longer detect all 4 > >> HDDs that I have plugged into the SATAII300TX4 card.
