Good morning all,
Yesterday I replaced a Sil680 PCI add-on card for a Promise 2027x PCI
add-on card.
Now, when I boot up, I miss two drives, exactly the two connected to
this promise card.
I have another onboard Promise controller which works just fine, so
the driver gets loaded properly, and since i see all my other disks
but these two I think we can rule out a misconfiguration of the kernel
config this time ;-)
This is a snippet from my dmesg
pata_pdc2027x 0000:00:0b.0: version 0.74-ac5
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:0b.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 20
pata_pdc2027x 0000:00:0b.0: PLL input clock 16799 kHz
ata7: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf98a17c0 ctl 0xf98a1fda bmdma 0xf98a1000 irq 20
ata8: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf98a15c0 ctl 0xf98a1dda bmdma 0xf98a1008 irq 20
scsi7 : pata_pdc2027x
scsi8 : pata_pdc2027x
ATA: abnormal status 0x8 on port 0xf98a15df
As you can see, scsi8 gives an abnormal status, which as we got
pointed out this week is just a cosmetic error for "No drive
attached/detected" and it's very right in that finding.
But what about scsi7? no warning/error about no disks being attached
nor a disk detection.
To state the obvious: I see the disks being detected by the Promise
BIOS when I boot the system,Primaiy master and Primaiy slave.
Here is the lspci -vvv regarding the controller
