I'm getting to my wits end, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've got two disk servers, on with SuperMicro X5DPL-iGM motherboard, the
other with a X5DPL-TGM board. These system use the E7501 chipset, and
provide to PCI-X buses. One for slots 4 and 5, the other for slot 6 and
the embedded Intel 82545EM GigE NIC.
I have had nothing but trouble trying to use slot 6 on these machines.
Recently I've been trying with a MV88SX6081 133MHz PCI-X card. In both
machines I get lockups when trying to use the controller. I also see
corruption on the on-board NIC on the TGM (though not on the iGM) with
the card in slot 6.
I'm running Fedora Core 4 with kernel 2.6.12-1.1456_FC4smp and mv_sata
driver 3.6.1. I'm stuck on the older kernel because of the mv_sata driver.
Now, maybe this is all the fault of the mv_sata driver, but I believe I
had problems on the iGM machine with a Intel 82545GM PCI-X nic in slot 6
as well which does not use the mv_sata driver at all normally.
Thoughts?
