Is there anything else I should do?
Maybe you want to check if dma is enabled with "hdparm /dev/hda", if it is activated (1) everything is oki.
Checked , but it says DMA = 0 (off).
Which Mainboard do you have? And which kernel-version?
Intel 82801BA-ICH2 Kernel 2-4-20
Hmm, i have found nothing interesting of this combination. Do a "hdparm -d1 /dev/hda" then a "hdparm /dev/hda" in the running system. Works it then? Please send the Output of "dmesg" after booting up. -- Andreas
