RE: Does Debian kernel supprt Intel 945P + ICH7 chipset? I have problem with SATA disk on Intel 945 & ICH 7 chipsets



Folks

There is a white paper available for installing Debian Sarge on an Intel
945 system. It is available from the wiki at wiki.debian.org; go to the
install help section and look toward the bottom. There are two white
papers; one is for the D945.

If that fails, the 945 white paper is hosted temporarily at:

Subject: Does Debian kernel supprt Intel 945P + ICH7 chipset? I have
problem with SATA disk on Intel 945 & ICH 7 chipsets

I have Debian Sarga-3.1 and FreeBSD-6.1 on my i686 machine running on
2 IDE disks. I also have a SATA disk on the machine.

The system is Intel 945P + ICH7 chipset based machine, has 82801GB
SATA and ATA controllers. The BIOS detached all 3 Disks, so did
Freebsd (even Freebsd can only mount the first partition of the SATA
disk).

FreeBSD-6.1 shows the system information:

	CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 5 CPU 2.66GHz (2659.89-MHz 686-class
CPU)
	Cores per package: 2
	real memory = 1073545216 (1023 MB)
	avail memory = 1041428480 (993 MB)
	FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 2 CPUs
	cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID: 0
	cpu1 (AP): APIC ID: 1
	re0: <RealTek 8169SB Single-chip Gigabit Ethernet>
	pcm0: <Avance Logic ALC850 AC97 Codec>
	ad0: 76319MB <Seagate ST380023A 3.53> at ata0-master UDMA100
	acd0: DVDROM <TSSTcorpDVD-ROM TS-H352C/CH01> at ata0-slave
UDMA33
	ad4: 152627MB <WDC WD1600JS-19MHB0 02.01C03> at ata2-master
SATA150

But Debian can not find the SATA disk (160G SATA) when I boot the
machine. So I got a new kernel version 2.6.10 from Debian website
using "apt-get install kernel-image-2.6.10", this kernel still could
not find my SATA disk either. Then I compiled my own kernel(2.6.16.20)
with SCSI support but without luck.

#dmesg only shows: SCSI subsystem initialized

When I did a "#cat /proc/scsi/scsi" I get:
Attached devices:

When I did "#ls /sys/block", I got:
hda  ram0  ram10  ram12  ram14  ram2  ram4  ram6  ram8
hdb  ram1  ram11  ram13  ram15  ram3  ram5  ram7  ram9

there are no folders like sdX inside.

Does Debian kernel support Intel 945P + ICH7 chipset? Any idea?
Thanks in advanced.
