I'm using a Promise Ultra 66 PCI card for my Linux drive. It seems to work fine - Linux recognizes the drive no prob. However, I do get some funky lilo messages, but I'm not sure if they are related to the promise card or not. Here's an example: linux:~ # lilo Warning: /dev/hde3 is not on the first disk Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Added linux * Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Added linux_2.4 Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Added suse Added windows Warning: BIOS drive 0x82 may not be accessible Added memtest86 Anyway, it all seems to work....:) Mike --------------------------------------------------------------------- Cleary_Mike@emc.com x6033 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- It said 'Requires Windows 95 or better".

I was opting for a promise fasttrack 66, but i read in the udma howto on linuxhq.com, that it was problematic to install with *recent* 2.2 kernels. As this document may be outdated, could somebody tell me (or point me to info) if this problematic situation is still the case? any other recommendations or tips? best regards, Alex -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
