Promise SATAII 150 TX (PDC 20579) & PATA/SATA port problem

[David Sanchez]

Hi,

I'm using the linux 2.6.13 (from www.linux-mips.org) containing the
libata patch (2.6.13-rc7-libata1.patch.bz2) on an AMD DBAu1550 (mips32).
I've connected a HDD to the pata port of my PDC 20579 controller.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work. Here a part of the boot messages:

...

I've try to connect a HDD on a SATA port and the problem still appears
:(. More when I try the 2.6.10 kernel with the corresponding libata
patch it, works !

Does somebody have such a behaviour ?
Please help me ! What can I do to make the kernel2.6.13 works with my
promise controller ?

Thanks
David
