I forgot to mention, my HPT card came with BIOS version 1.20. After encountering these problems, I upgraded it to 1.21 (the latest) with no improvement. After successfully installing Fedora Core 1 on these 160gb drives on
the motherboard IDE interfaces, I've moved them to a Promise
Ultra100TX2 where they also appear to work just fine. I'll hold onto
the HPT Rocket100 for additional testing and possible future use.

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: Fedora Core 1 cannot install on drives connected to this card. The kernel appears to hang when devices on the card are probed. After Fedora Core 1 is installed on drives connected to the motherboard's IDE controller, I put the Rocket100 back in with 1 drive for more testing. HPT's product and chip numbers are a bit confusing, but the Rocket100 is a dual port ATA100 controller. It is not a RAID card. The RocketRAID100 is the RAID version of this card.

They offer driver disks on their site for various older Red Hat versions. I tried their driver disks with both Red Hat 8.0 and Red Hat 9. In both cases, the install got as far as installing RPM packages, but died with IO errors after installing just a few packages. The same drives work fine (though slower) on the P2L97's built-in ATA33 interfaces. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install HPT Rocket100 controller 2. Connect a drive to Rocket100 using supplied 80-pin cable 3. Watch kernel hang at next boot Actual Results: Kernel hung. Expected Results: Kernel should have completed booting so I could install Fedora. Additional info:
