RE: [suse-amd64] Dual AMD 64
Hi Frank, I am about to give this a try. Two questions if you don't mind. 1) where did you get the "2.6.0-test11" kernel from & 2) are you running SMP? Andreas posted this a little while back,
Hello again,
will the kernel 2.6 also be available for SUSE-Linux9.0-AMD64 as an update ?
Not as an official and supported update. You can get it already today
From ftp.suse.com/pub/people/kraxel/x86_64/
but I'm guessing that this is not test11 ? Thanks in advance, Alan

Thanks for that. Will give a go later.
Dumb question. I presume you stll have to boot strap via IDE disks when installing 9.0, get a system running then apply the patches, recompile, then you'll get the SATA disks available ?
Regards Alan

I built a dual AMD on Suse 9.0 using a Tyan K2885 mother board (needed AGP). DONT use SATA drives. No drivers and Silicon Image cant tell us when :-(
I got my two HITACHI 160GB SATA running connected to the SiI3114 of my Tyan Thunder K8W today :-) Here you find the patch for the 2.6.0-test11 kernel: http://lwn.net/Articles/62230/
hdparm shows 58MB/s, no error until now, heavy compiling today using the drives.

Wrong guess. ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/people/kraxel/x86_64/x86_64 for the directory, and ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/people/kraxel/x86_64/x86_64/kernel-smp-26-2.6.0_test11-11.x86_64.rpm for the smp kernel. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Web Address: http://www.mydestiny.net/~joe_morris Registered Linux user 231871 God said, I AM that I AM.

Hi Frank,
I am about to give this a try. Two questions if you don't mind.
1) where did you get the "2.6.0-test11" kernel from & I have used a plain 2.6.0-test11 kernel from ftp.kernel.org to be sure that

Now 2.6.0 is released, but I don't know about the SiI3114 patch. I have seen it in Andrew Mortons -mm tree, so may be in 2.6.1.
2) are you running SMP? Yes, it works so far - but no intensiv tests yet. I have only checked that all my hardware in ok. I will start the work with that system after Christmas holiday.
