I guess I missed that one, as I was specifically looking for ICH6 issues (hence found the PR, and a lot of chat about ICH6 RAID support) and missed all the rest :( > Since there is NO support for the current ATA driver(1), the only > recourse we have been given is to try using Soren's Beta ATA MkIII > patches OR jump to a beta release of 6.0. So, I suggest that you try > that. I can't run 6.0 on it - I might see if there's a way of forcing the system to pick the generic/DMA33 driver it was using before, or check the patches out. Failing that, I guess it's back to 5.4-R for me :( Thanks for the info, -Karl
