Bug 220138

I installed FC6 on a 5th drive (this one an older PATA drive) and then upgraded
to the latest kernel in the 'development' repo:

kernel-2.6.19-1.2891.fc7

All 4 SATA drives are now detected:

Now waiting for kernel-xen-2.6.19 appear...

I tried some of the newer kernels last night. Results:

kernel-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6          NO WORKIE
kernel-xen-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6      NO WORKIE
kernel-xen-2.6.19-1.2898.2.3.fc7  NO WORKIE

kernel-2.6.19-1.2913.fc7          WORKS

Summary: The only kernel that sees all 4 SATA drives is the latest non-xen
development kernel.

kernel-xen-2.6.19-1.2911.fc6 DOES NOT see 3rd and 4th SATA drives on Intel
DQ963FX MB

kernel-xen-2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6 DOES NOT see 3rd and 4th SATA drives on Intel
DQ963FX MB

I also have this problem on a P965 intel board.

The 3rd and 4th SATA ports have drives connected but the kernel thinks the link
is down.

ata3: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)
ata4: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)

I have the same problem with Intel DG965RY mobo and RHEL5 (kernel
2.6.18-8.1.6.el5xen). Seems to be related to the problem described in this
kernel thread: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/9/14/218.

(This is a mass-update to all current FC6 kernel bugs in NEW state)

Hello,

I'm reviewing this bug list as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt
to isolate current bugs in the Fedora kernel.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage

I am CC'ing myself to this bug, however this version of Fedora is no longer
maintained.

Please attempt to reproduce this bug with a current version of Fedora (presently
Fedora 8). If the bug no longer exists, please close the bug or I'll do so in a
few days if there is no further information lodged.

Thanks for using Fedora!

I'm running el5 (2.6.18-53.1.4.el5.centos) on this machine now and it it's
working fine. 

I'll close this as INSUFFICIENT_DATA in that case, since we don't know if it was
resolved in a later Fedora release (though it's a safe bet since it's fixed in RHEL)
