| |
Hi!
I think I found a bug in the IDE subsystem. When I do 'cat /proc/ide/hde/identify', the system locks up completely, not even Alt+RysRq+B helps. Everything else under /proc/ide works. hdparm can cause the same symptoms, but I have not checked when exactly it does so.
I have an Asus A7V mainboard with VIA 82C686A as first IDE controller and an onboard Promise PDC20265 as second IDE controller. Both have a Fujitsu MPF3204AT as their primary master drive, but the problem occurs only on the Promise adapter.
I have tried kernel 2.4.0-test11-pre6, test11-ac2 and ide.2.4.0-t11.1120, all with the same result, but I did not try any older kernels, because I installed the machine just two days ago.
