;-) I Should know better I am actually a trained Psychologist, I don't know if you know anything about writing for psychology but APA formating and citation is quite complex and strict... I tend to loose this when posting to lists/forums. Habits leaned mostly (I suspect) from growing up Using FIDOnet and IRC =-) Kind regards Joel On Wed, 2004-05-19 at 22:04, Manfred Knick wrote:

In addition to this I found this very interesting note on the gentoo amd64 project page... explaining a bit more about raid controllers on amd64 platforms:
Hi, Joel,
really, I appreciate your profound solid articles you contribute to this list. Only a tiny small addendum: Every author would appreciate correct and complete citation and that the (correct) reference would be provided (IMHO, that holds on the WEB too). To ease your workload, I took over the digging for you ;-)

The passage you copied is not from the "Gentoo/AMD64 Project" page itself, which can be found via http://www.gentoo.org/ --> projects, "show subprojects", "base - Gentoo AMD/64 project" http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/index.xml
Paragraph "4. Subprojects" -> "Documentation" holds the reference "Gentoo/AMD64 Installation Technotes" http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/technotes.xml.
Text and table were (incompletely) copied in reversed order from Chapter "2. Hardware" Paragraph "2.b. SATA/PATA Raid Controllers" #>> http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/technotes.xml?part=2&chap=2
missing the (not totally irrelevant ;-) "Note: Only channels 1 and 2 work on the Silicon Image 3114. Channels 3 and 4 aren't working yet."
