Promise PDC20376 wont see the disk attached to the P-ATA port!


Is there any way i can get my Promise PDC20376 (FastTrak 376) to recognice the disk i got on the P-ATA port on my controller?
I'm using kernel 2.6.7-1-i386 and Debian unstable.

Regards

See "Promise TX2/TX4", I'm guessing this includes your card(?)

Thx fphillips, it looks like i cant get the PATA port working on a 2.6.7 kernel, i'll try a 2.4.22 kernel and see if i can get it to work.

eh.. actually it's not a 2.4 vs. 2.6 problem - the code is new in both. AFAIK current 2.4 support is the same as 2.6, so you'd just have to wait until it's completed. But you're more than welcome to try a 2.4 if you want!
