DMA and UDMA
Dear debian-isp,
I have just compiled the kernel 2.6.6 in my box, and during boot time it says the
following for each disk partition:
******************************************************
* Warning: The dma on your hard drive is turned off. *
* This may really slow down the fsck process. *
******************************************************
And in fact it takes 15 minutes to end the booting process...
I compiled the kernel with all the DMA options enabled an the BIOS has them enabled too.
Maybe I'm missing an option or I have to install hdparm or...?
My motherboard is an M756 LMRT+ with a PIII (RK80526PZ001256) and the disk is an WD200EB
if that helps.
Thanks in advance,
Agustín
