It's a UDMA66 drive but of course I'm only using UDMA33 to it ... I don't have the dmesg output handy from 4.0-RC3, but here's from 3.4-STABLE: chip0: <Intel 82443BX host to PCI bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.0.0 chip1: <Intel 82443BX host to AGP bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.1.0 chip2: <Intel 82371AB PCI to ISA bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.4.0 Beats me, it's a pretty vanilla setup. All I know is that now when the thing boots from the cd (and after compiling a custom kernel) it doesn't sit there and "hang" for 30 seconds or so like it did before ..... ? > Yes it is FAST! and I love it....I see that the 64MB memory problem has > been fix at the install level. 3.x only reads 64MB of RAM at the floppy > install. 4.0 reads all of my 128MB.
