IDE/DMA problems?
Hello,
currently I'm entering the BIOS quite often for enabling/disabling the
IDE/SCSI boot, so that I can boot from an IDE (UDMA) HD or a SCSI HD as
needed.
All of a sudden, I've started to see some message from the kernel. Here
is the 'dmesg' relevant part:
PCI_IDE: unknown IDE controller on PCI bus 00 device 78, VID=10b9,
DID=5229
PCI_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
PCI_IDE: simplex device: DMA disabled
ide0: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
PCI_IDE: simplex device: DMA disabled
ide1: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
hda: ST38630A, ATA DISK drive
hdb: CRD-8400C, ATAPI CDROM drive
hdc: ST34321A, ATA DISK drive
.. strange as right now I've booted from the IDE disk and IDE boot mode
*IS* enabled in my BIOS. I'm 100% sure I haven't fiddled with any other
BIOS option.
Any idea as to why this is happening?
Please, Cc: me as I'm not on this list.
TIA,
