Hey Group; I have someone with a old AMD K6-2 500Mhz baby MB. It has 2 IDE hard drives on a 66 bus. hdparm and /dev/sda and /dev/sdb seem to have problems. I had a felling that SuSE may be using them as idebus=33 and not 66. So, I was going to check using hdparm and set it on. However, these drives are not liked by hdparm. I keep getting a io error. The system is SuSE 10.3Alpha2. Has anyone noticed this problem? It maybe a problem with hdparm dealing with the sda drive and not hda -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb@hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 Did you know?
