Precisely what happened is easiest to trace with the identify data in hand. For example, maybe the sparc code still has to be extended to fix the order of lba_capacity48 or so (in ide_fix_driveid).
Almost certainly this is the problem. I am looking at it.
BTW, this fixing in-place of the driveid is a very bad idea. Nobody should ever touch driveid. It is a read-only variable.
Well, you are probably right. Currently it is defined as read-only after ide_fix_driveid() runs on it :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
