| |
I just tried hooking up a Hitachi 1TB SATA-II drive to a Marvell 7042 based controller, and the most recent Linux kernel (2.6.23-rc1) fails to properly initialize the interface. Here are the relevant kernel messages:

The kernel never even registers the drive as an available disk device, whereas everything appears to work fine, if I connect the disk to one of the other controllers (JMicron AHCI, or NVidia sata_nv) on this motherboard.
As I have two of those disks (in a RAID-1 array) and multiple independent controllers, it is relatively easy for me to do some testing here. The worst case scenario is that I need to wait a couple of hours for the array to rebuild itself after I am done experimenting.
Let me know, if there is anything I can do to help you diagnose the root cause, or whether this is a known bug and you don't need any help testing at this point.
