Also, how do I go about enabling UDMA/33 on my system? I see "DMA disabled" in my bootup sequence.
You'd probably need to recompile your kernel for this. Firstly, you need to know which chipset your motherboard manufacturer used. Second, you want to download the latest kernel from ftp.us.kernel.org (2.2.14, since 2.2.15 is not *quite* ready yet). Third and finally, get familiar with building a kernel.</blockquote> <snip>
I got UDMA going on my system, with the Standard Kernal that came with SuSE 6.3; ergo no recompile needed. But, you must have a BIOS/Board/HDD that can do UDMA & all the bits enabled before it will do UDMA. For both Borg & Tux, this means some leg work.... Good luck & you know where to find the Tux legions.... :-) Greek Geek 'Reilly's Law of the Kitchen: Cleanliness is next to impossible -- 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/Doku/FAQ/
