after I see in the kernel changelog that the 2.4.20 kernel already support HPT372A chipset I try to install rh 9's kernel to one of our rh 8.0 machine in which we have 4 HP rocketraid 133 adapter card. until now I use a custom kernel (drived from rh's src.rpm, remove all HPT support,
compile HPT's "opensource" driver and use hdx=noprobe for all ide drive to prevent "lost interrupt"). now with the new kernel-2.4.20-8 the "lost interrupt" disapear, the ide drives and the raid are working for a few minutes, but after that the kernel stops for a few second, gives a registry dump (and some sort error message about ide-dma error). so IMHO it still better to use the hpt's deriver and disable the mainstream kernel's hpt support.
