Sorry for bothering you but I have a problem and you might know what's the problem....
I've just shitched to a newer pentium motherboard from an
DTKPAM0056I.P02.01.04C-V1.04C 02/25/97-i430VX-W877-2A59GG39C-00
to a newer one
DTKPAM0057I.P02.03.01-V3.01 10/17/97-i430TX-NS309-2A59ID1HC-00
and I got this problem with an older harddisk IDE Seagate Medalist of 1,7GB which is NOT-UDMA.
Kernelul at boot says: (Linux v. 2.1.125)
hdc: probing with STATUS(0xff) instead of ALTSTATUS(0x50) hdc: ST31720A, ATA DISK drive
When I try mounting one of its partitions it starts to make a horrible noise and spits repeatedly with errors on the console whyle trying to miount (the drive gets mounted successfully but I am afraid to write on it):
hdc: unexpected_intr: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdc: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdd: DMA disabled hdc: drive not ready for command ide1: reset: success
hdparm says:
[root@lcjdap ~]# hdparm -i /dev/hdc
/dev/hdc:
Model=ST31720A, FwRev=0.42, SerialNo=GFB4YB8 Config={ HardSect NotMFM HdSw>15uSec Fixed DTR>10Mbs RotSpdTol>.5% } RawCHS=3305/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=4 BuffType=0(?), BuffSize=0kB, MaxMultSect=16, MultSect=off DblWordIO=no, maxPIO=1(medium), DMA=yes, maxDMA=2(fast) CurCHS=3305/16/63, CurSects=3331852, LBA=yes, LBAsects=3331852 tDMA={min:120,rec:120}, DMA modes: *mword0 mword1 mword2 IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:383,w/IORDY:120}, PIO modes: mode3 mode4
[root@lcjdap ~]#
The same hdd mounted as secondary master (as in this example) on the old motherboard with EXACTLY THE SAME KERNEL 2.1.125 and even with 2.0.35 has no problem on mount or write...
I've tried switching off UDMA on the secondary ide I tried swithich off UDMA totally on the motherboard, I've also switched off PIO on the motherboard no change... If I mount an UDMA hdd on the same cable (as secondary master) on the new motherboard that works great...
I need advice, please help me.
Regards, Roby
