Ok, thanks for the prompt reply and the notice for the cc: :) I'm using libata and ata_piix now. My disk is seen as "sda" and a lshw is reporting the controler as using "ata_piix" : # lshw -c STORAGE *-ide description: IDE interface product: 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 7.1 bus info: pci@0000:00:07.1 logical name: scsi0 logical name: scsi1 version: 01 width: 32 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: ide bus_master emulated configuration: driver=ata_piix latency=0 But fdisk always recognize the disk as 136.8Gb : # fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 136.8 GB, 136899993600 bytes 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 265260 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes Disk identifier: 0xd7267427 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 204 102815+ 83 Linux /dev/sda2 205 2236 1024128 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda3 2237 20805 9358776 83 Linux Here is the new kernel config file : http://pastebin.com/f65fd472b
I would definitely be interested in seeing the 'dmesg' output for libata, and results from a more recent kernel.
