Description bibo,mao 2007-06-28 02:35:27 UTC

Description of problem:
FC7 can not be installed on my santa-rosa platform from ide CDROM, it can only
be installed by NFS method. But RHEL5 can be installed from ide CDROM.

Here is my pci device list by lspci and lspci -n command

00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev f3)
00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile LPC Interface Controller (rev 03)
00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation Mobile IDE Controller (rev 03)
00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation Mobile SATA AHCI Controller (rev 03)
00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03)
00:1f.4 Performance counters: Intel Corporation Unknown device 284e (rev 03)
02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Unknown device 4229 (rev 61)

00:1e.0 0604: 8086:2448 (rev f3)
00:1f.0 0601: 8086:2811 (rev 03)
00:1f.1 0101: 8086:2850 (rev 03)
00:1f.2 0106: 8086:2829 (rev 03)
00:1f.3 0c05: 8086:283e (rev 03)
00:1f.4 1101: 8086:284e (rev 03)
02:00.0 0280: 8086:4229 (rev 61)

I checked FC7 kernel source code, libata and ata_piix is for ide/sata device,
but ICH8M IDE controller(8086:2850) is not listed in file ata_piix.c.
So FC7 can not identify my ide cdrom

Someone else has post one patch in LKML, it works for me. The IDE cdrom can by 
identified with this patch.

Chuck, did you add it to F-7 only on purpose? 

Seems the patch is sill being discussed on linux-ide and looks like it won't
make it into 2.6.22, so might make sense to add it to the devel branch temporary
as well.

Done.

Now the patch has already in linus git tree, I think it can be added into FC7 
update kernel and future FC8 test version.
This patch is critical for us, without this patch FC7 can not be installed from 
Santa-Rosa DVD cdrom, and DVD cdrom can not be identified even FC7 is installed 
from network.

It's part of the testing kernel already

As those are based on linus' git tree ATM it's part of that as well

If you/Intel want to help it would be nice if you could clarify if the recent
ICH's support Ultras/ATA 133 or not

See the thread on LKML starting at
http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/0264.html

According to that code the ICH5 and ICH7/7R support Ultra/ATA 133, but that's
not the case afaics from the datasheets.

Comment 8 Dave Jones 2007-10-11 06:51:50 UTC

should be fixed in devel tree, and forthcoming F7 2.6.23 update.
