Hi,
I have a little problem with my fileserver running kernel 2.6.0-test9 I have recently installed a 3rd IDE controller in the box, and Linux doesn't find it. I searched the archives for solutions for my problem, and found that there's a hardcoded limit in the kernel which only allows 10 IDE channels. I tried changing MAX_HWIFS in ide.h and also the name assignment code in ide.c, and now the kernel at least finds my controller, though disks cannot be used. I get this error during boot:
HPT37X: using 33MHz PCI clock idea: BM-DMA at 0x9800-0x9807, BIOS settings: hdu:DMA, hdv:DMA ideb: BM-DMA at 0x9808-0x980f, BIOS settings: hdw:DMA, hdx:DMA ... idea: I/O resource 0xA402-0xA402 not free. hdu: ERROR, PORTS ALREADY IN USE hdv: ERROR, PORTS ALREADY IN USE ideb: I/O resource 0x9C02-0x9C02 not free. hdw: ERROR, PORTS ALREADY IN USE hdx: ERROR, PORTS ALREADY IN USE
Is there anyone who have had this problem, and is there a solution for it?
Regards, Lars
