Probably your drives are renamed.
Before you had (wild guess, look at your boot log messages):
- ata bus -> hdc,hdd
- sata -> sda (if you really have any sata bus...)
Now all hdX become sdX, and PATA is detected _before_ SATA, so you names
probaly became:
- ata via libata -> sda (HD), sr0 (CDROM)
- sata -> sdb.
on fedora this doesn't matter (due to mount-by-label)
the bigger problem I suspect is that the sata modules aren't part of the
initrd!
you can force the issue by adding
alias scsi_hostadapter1 ata_piix
to the /etc/modprobe.conf file, and then recreating the initrd
(see the mkinitrd tool, or just install the kernel rpm)
Thanks all.
Arjan, using combined_mode=libata and making a new ramdisk increased my
xfer rate from 1.xx mb/sec to 28.xx mb/sec.
I am curious as to why my friends dell inspiron 8200 with a 1.8ghz p4
and the same drive using the same drive with FC6 and the standard ide
module gets 44 to 45 mb/sec.
