>Description:
Promise Ultra33 IDE cards do not work. The source appears to have support for them, the PCI probe finds them, but they do not end up working. I fiddled considerable with the configuration and building the kernel. I've looked at the source, but it is unintelligable. Carl Mascott, cmascott@world.std.com, had a similar experience as me; he ended up returning the card. We both sent email to freebsd-questions
and got no response except for each other.
>How-To-Repeat:
Get a machine with onboard IDE + a Promise Ultra33 PCI IDE card. Attempt to use any hard drives on the Promise card.
>Fix:
No known fix.
