Bug#360809: kernel: SCSI emulation for SATA drives fails on NVIDIA-2 chip sets
Package: kernel
Version: N/A; reported 2006-04-04
Severity: important
Unable to recognize SATA drives on NVIDIA-2 chip sets if SCSI emulation
is turned on. Recompiling the kernel without SCSI support recognizes the
drives as /dev/hd?. The same drives are recognized and mapped to SCSI
drives under NVIDIA-4 chip sets. However SATA CDROMS are not recognized
under either chip set if SCSI support is enabled. The SATA CDROM is
recognized if SCSI support is disabled in the kernel.
