https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=365534 Summary: Problem with pata_sis / sis5513 in quite old AsRock Board Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: PC OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lahmbi5675@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Other Hello all, I've had enormous problems updating my opensuse 10.0 installation to opensuse 10.3 on a AsRock PE PRO HT Board (chipset SIS 645DX). Main reason was, that the installer and the new installed kernel always preferred the pata_sis driver before sis5513/ata_generic/generic (roughly in that order, i don't want to go through the whole process again to find out the exact order, but sis5513 was always second). But I have neither scsi nor serial or parallel ata hardware in this computer, not even 80pin cables, so this is definitely wrong. The problems resulting were that i suddenly had scsi drives, which made the grub configuration and my /etc/fstab unusable, though parts of them were adjusted by the installer. But the one older IDE hard drive with an Windows NTFS partition was not recognized anymore, the kernel simply didn't find it with the pata_sis driver. I tried to fix the problem with kernel parameters, first with BROKEN_MODULES="pata_sis", which didn't work. Finally something like LEGACY_IDE (LEGACYIDE?) and EARLYMODULES="sis5513 ide_generic" given to the installer worked. ide_generic was necessary, because without that my DVD drive wouldn't be found. Would be nice, if such bugs could be fixed in future kernel versions, I'd like to continue installing newer kernels, but will Some additional information: Concordia:/home/ernst # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS645DX Host & Memory & AGP Controller (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge (AGP) 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS962 [MuTIOL Media IO] (rev 25) 00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS961/2 SMBus Controller 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0) 00:03.0 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.1 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.3 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 2.0 Controller 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 90) 00:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture (rev 11) 00:0a.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
