Do we have test hardware in-house? More importantly, is the Promise TX4 located on a 66Mhz, 100Mhz, or 133Mhz PCI bus? There are reported problems when the TX4 is connected to a PCI bus running > 33 Mhz. Note, the controller is a PDC20319 chip mounted on the mother board, but according to the block diagram on page 107 of the manual: http://www.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/Socket604/NCCH-DL/e1636_ncch-dl.pdf It's connected to the 6300ESB south bridge via a 33mhz bus. Evan Removing from Blocker list. This will not stop ship, albeit as Jeff mentions this should be fixed asap, along with the 66+ MHz bus issues. I was not able to match your exact hardware, but, I was able to install RHEL4 U8 to a Seagate drive hanging off a TX4 controller, and successfully run some IO stress. Please re-open if you can reproduce on a kernel-2.6.9-89.EL. |
