Hello, I'm having detection problems with a CF to SATA bridge on a 2.6.30 kernel (2.6.30-1-orion5x). Platform is Orion SoC (DNS-323 Dlink NAS) The bridge is a "made in china" device with no real name : "CF TO SATA Converter" can be read on the package. They mention "Linux support whitout any additional drivers", and DMA and Ultra DMA support (if CF supports it) Tests have been done with a 128MB CFI et a 1GB CFII, no differences. dmesg gives : [ 1.960000] SCSI subsystem initialized [ 2.180000] libata version 3.00 loaded.

Hmm.. err_mask 0x2 seems to be HSM violation, and edma_err_cause=00001000 seems to be.. IORDY timeout? Not sure what that is supposed to indicate on this controller..
Mark, any ideas?
(I have the system root on a regular samsung disk attached to the second SATA slot) loaded modules related to storage : sd_mod 34340 3 sata_mv 29300 3 libata 169188 1 sata_mv scsi_mod 151332 2 sd_mod,libata Looking at libata options I saw : parm: dma:DMA enable/disable (0x1==ATA, 0x2==ATAPI, 0x4==CF) (int) I then tried option libata dma=3. No luck, same error log. I'm unsure if the problem comes from the orion architecture (marvell low-level sata driver ?) or is generic with 2.6.30 (I don't have SATA PC hardware here to disambiguate that). Any hints, directions I could look for are much appreciated ! Cheers PS: bridge looks rigorously like this http://ucables.com/img/extra/CF-TO-SATA-CONVERTER-R45822-1.jpg
