:D


I have a hard drive the one mention in subject that will not boot up all night. lspci -k gives me back:
Code:

PATA_ATIIXP
PATA_ACPI
ATA_GENERIC

Code:
00:11.0 IDE interface: Advance Micro Device[AMD] /SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 SATA Controller [IDE Controller]
 Now it's in IDE mode which I have tryed both AHCI and IDE with my hard drive bios. enabling the loaded drivers comes up with nothing but failed attempts with the kernel panics with the "unable to mount root fs 8,18 message"
Anyone has this hard drive and had any success with it.


Is there a IDE controller .config I'm missing?

chessmaster,

Its PATA_ATIXP you need and its not affected by your BIOS IDE/AHCI setting.

As your panic includes 8,18, which is sdb2, is that really your root fs ?

If your HDD is SATA, not PATA ... connected with a narrow cable, not a 40/80 wire ribbon, set your BIOS to AHCI mode and enable AHCI and Platform AHCI in the kernel.
Its also possible that the filesystem driver for your root filesystem is missing from your kernel.

here is my

.config
http://pastebin.com/J2ckQp2Y


I was up all night doing this just to test to see if it works I activated everything in my .config previous to this one in the SATA section and SCSI and it booted up.
Code:

00:14.1 IDE interface: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SB7x0/SB8x0/SB9x0 IDE Controller
        Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 8389
        Kernel driver in use: pata_atiixp


Code:

CONFIG_PATA_ATIIXP=y



Very confusing as I have everything enabled
Code:

CONFIG_SATA_AHCI=y

well now I got my stuff all mess up now and got a start a new install I have read



Quote:
I had to shut AHCI off and use IDE emulation. WD1002FAEX hard drive. The problem might be my Gigabyte motherboard BIOS. Try IDE emulation and see if it boots.

Another idea: boot the system rescue disk and then check with lspci etc to see what's loaded.

Will give that a try
