Hi
I bought an IDE Controller the other day ( non RAID version)
See http://www.ivmm.com/eio/products_dm8401h.html
As ist stated there should be linux support.
No the problem is
(output from cat /proc/pci
Bus 0, device 17, function 0:
Unknown mass storage controller: PCI device 1283:8212 (Integrated
Technology Express, Inc.) (rev 17).
IRQ 11.
Master Capable. No bursts. Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=8.
I/O at 0xd800 [0xd807].
I/O at 0xdc00 [0xdc03].
I/O at 0xe000 [0xe007].
I/O at 0xe400 [0xe403].
I/O at 0xe800 [0xe80f].
The device is unknown
So i have patched the kernel and changed the old silicon image device number
to match my
?unknown? device.

Dmesg gives me now

ide3: BM-DMA at 0xe808-0xe80f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio
and it finds both die drives connected to the controller

hdparm ?dt /dev/hde /dev/hdf
/dev/hde:
using_dma = 1 (on)
Timing buffered disk reads: 86 MB in 3.04 seconds = 28.29 MB/sec
/dev/hdf:
using_dma = 1 (on)
Timing buffered disk reads: 90 MB in 3.03 seconds = 29.70 MB/sec
So it works.. kinda..
As you see there is only UDMA 33 enabled ( both drive can do at least udma
100)
The driver seems right but the hack is REALLY bad ( works for me)
You guys know much more about that stuff than i do.. maybe i could help.
