Re: ata 100 drivers for debian.(Promise Ultra100 IDE Controller PDC20265)

I assume you have two ordinary ide controllers on your motherboard.
In that case you can:
 connect disc on std. ide
 install debian
 download lk-2.2.18 and latest ide-patches
 roll your own kernel and install it
 move disc to udma100 controller
 find out what the discs new name by rebooting and studying boot
   messages, probably /dev/hde
 reboot with root=/dev/hde??, s/hda/hde/g in /etc/fstab

I send a similar mail with subject 'Re: UDMA66 boot problem/HPT370'
today, it contains more details.

Regards,
/Karl
