I have a Soyo P4 motherboard with built in Intel ICH5, Sil, and I have "IDE + SATA" enabled in the bios, presumably meaning the ICH5 is in combined mode. I usually boot with my rootfs on a ordinary IDE drive (pata on ICH5 ide0), a cdrom (pata on ICH5 ide1) and a sata drive (sata1 on ICH5), which has all been working nicely. Many thanks. :-) Here is what I usually see from the ICH5:
Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00beta5-2.4 ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx ICH5: IDE controller at PCI slot 00:1f.1 ICH5: chipset revision 2 ICH5: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later ide0: BM-DMA at 0xf000-0xf007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio ide1: BM-DMA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio hda: WDC WD2000JB-32EVA0, ATA DISK drive hdc: SONY DVD RW DRU-510A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14 ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15 hda: attached ide-disk driver. hda: 390721968 sectors (200049 MB) w/8192KiB Cache, CHS=24321/255/63, UDMA(100) Partition check: hda: hda1 hda2 SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 libata version 1.02 loaded. ata_piix version 1.02 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:1f.2 to 64 ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC000 ctl 0xC402 bmdma 0xD000 irq 18 ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC800 ctl 0xCC02 bmdma 0xD008 irq 18 ata1: dev 0 cfg 49:2f00 82:7c6b 83:7f09 84:4003 85:7c69 86:3e01 87:4003 88:207f ata1: dev 0 ATA, max UDMA/133, 398297088 sectors (lba48) ata1: dev 0 configured for UDMA/133 ata2: SATA port has no device. ata2: thread exiting scsi0 : ata_piix scsi1 : ata_piix Vendor: ATA Model: Maxtor 6Y200M0 Rev: 1.02 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05
Yesterday while doing some testing, I made a CD with the same kernel on it as shown above, i.e. latest 2.4.26-rc1 + the current 2.4.26-rc1-libata3 patch. I then unplugged the power connector to my usual rootfs drive (the WDC WD2000JB on ide0) to make sure I wouldn't screw it up ;-).
Booting from CD (the SONY on ide1) with only the Maxtor 6Y200M0 (on the ICH5 sata1), the libata driver wedged solid on bootup. After printing
ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC000 ctl 0xC402 bmdma 0xD000 irq 18 ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xC800 ctl 0xCC02 bmdma 0xD008 irq 18
the box was dead dead dead. I can't test this setup with the bios set to SATA only, since I don't own any SATA cdrom drives. Simply plugging the WDC WD2000JB on ide0 back in allowed the system to boot normally. As nearly as I can tell, one has to have a pata drive installed or the ata_piix driver will wedge solid.
