Hi,

I'm probably being a complete idiot but please don't let that stop you helping me. I've got an Si3112 and i'm trying to use libata as i've heard it's the bees knees. I'm running fedora core 1 but I've recently downloaded and built 2.6.0 from kernel.org. I believe libata is built into 2.6.0 ? What options do I need to set/unset when I do the 'make config' step to tell the kernel to use libata? Or do i start it up some other way? Is there a FAQ or HOWTO for libata?

Please help as i've been getting rubbish performance out of my SATA drive and those bloody sata_error messages flooding my screen for ages. I really thought that 2.6 would sort it. I'm at the point where i'm about to give up and go back to XP.

thanks in advance.
