The following reply was made to PR i386/60344; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Jeremy Chadwick <freebsd@jdc.parodius.com> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, npaufler@incentre.net Cc: Subject: Re: i386/60344: Intel ICH5 SATA RAID boot problems on both -STABLE and -CURRENT Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2004 05:08:14 -0800 Good news -- it looks as if the Linux folks have a working driver for the ICH5R with RAID0 and RAID1 support. The Linux patch in question is written by a bloke from Intel. If someone could please forward this follow-up over to Soren, I'd appreciate it. I have a feeling this may help solve some of our problems, the biggest of which is why BTX is dying. http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0311.3/0222.html ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/ Also: I have a lot of free time presently which could be used to assist in debugging this entire ordeal (re: BTX panic). It's also possible for me to provide a kernel/module developer with VNC access to a Windows XP box in my abode that is hooked to the SuperMicro 5013C-T box via serial console (BIOS-level), therefore debugging could be done remotely by a kernel-dev if necessary. -- | Jeremy Chadwick koitsu at jdc.parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977. |
