Also, try connecting your hdc and hdd devices with an 80-conductor IDE cable (those with the blue connector on the motherboard side) and see whether that fixes the problem. 3. send the output of 'hdparm --Istdout /dev/hdc' Thanks. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
