 |
|
I've tried to update my kernel to version 2.6.18-r2, but I'm just getting kernel panic during boot due to sata hd_drive.
I get following error messages:
ata1: SRST failed (status 0xFF)
ata1: SRST failed (strr mask 0x100)
Motherboard is MSI K9N Platinum with Nforce 570 chipset and at least kernel versions 2.6.17-r2 and 2.6.17-r8 have worked with same setup flawlessly. |

| 2.6.18-r2 is causing issues with Intel SATA as well. |

I have that same motherboard (mine is the non-SLI Ultra edition), and both the 2.6.17 kernels and the new 2.6.18-r2 kernel work flawlessly with all three of my SATA drives. You sure that your hardware isn't failing? Actually, a common cause of error messages can be bad cables, so you might want to check those first.

May be I need to check my kernel config more carefully. Hard drive and cables should be fine as 2.6.17 kernel works for me and I can access files also from Windows without any problems. |

Maybe the problem is with libata 2.00. On my crappy SiS mainboard I get these errors on 2.6.18-gentoo-r2/r3:

With libata 1.20 and 2.6.17 I don't get any of these errors, dmesg is clean. |

My error has nothing to do with cables. It is timing out a port with no cable plugged into it. It seems to be a driver bug that the kernel is looking for drives where none exist. There is another thread talking about this where others are noticing the same issue! 2.6.17-r2 didn't even look at my secondary sata port.

That could be the reason, if ata1 points to motherboards first sata port. My hard drives are actually connected to ports 3 and 4. |
