Harddisk : IDE Hitachi Deskstar 7K80 80 Go 2 Mo (HDS728080PLAT20) DVD-ROM Reader/Writer : LG GSA-H22N
+++++
Problem Description:
My main harddisk where I want to create my root(/) and home (/home) partitions is
an IDE Hitachi Deskstar 7K80 80 Go 2 Mo (HDS728080PLAT20) harddisk that is connected to an IDE controller integrated in Marvell 88SE6111 chipset. My LG GSA-H22N DVD-Rom reader is connected to the same IDE connector than my IDE harddisk.
I use this DVD-Rom reader for installing Mandriva 2008.1 RC2.
I have an other Hitachi harddisk that is connected to an SATAII port by ICH9 chipset.
When I want to create my root linux partition, the mandriva installer show me only one harddisk that is connected to sata port. The installer don't show my main harddisk that is connnected to ide port with Marvell chipset.
Because I unplug my sata harddisk, the mandriva installer said me that it don't find any harddisk on my PC computer. It propose to show me the harddisk controller informations avaible on my computer :
The mandriva 2008.1 RC2 installer found these harddisk chipset on my computer :
pata_marvell : "Marvell Technology Group Ltd. | 88SE6121 SATA II Controller" [Storage_IDE]
ata_piix : "Intel corporation (82801 | (ICH9 Family ) 2 port SATA IDE Controller [storage_ide] (subv: 1462 subd : 7365)
ata_piix : "Intel corporation (82801 | (ICH9 Family ) 2 port SATA IDE Controller [storage_ide] (subv: 1462 subd : 7365)
ata_piix : "Intel corporation (82801 | B (ICH9 Family ) 2 port SATA IDE Controller [storage_ide] (subv: 1462 subd : 7365)
ata_piix : "Intel corporation (82801 | B (ICH9 Family ) 2 port SATA IDE Controller [storage_ide] (subv: 1462 subd : 7365)
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Installer in MandrivaLinux 2008.1 RC2
How reproducible:
use an IDE harddisk connected to an IDE port with IDE 88SE6111 chipset on a motherboard and a ICH9 chipset too on this same mainboard
+++++
VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION :
I think that my IDE harddisk don't work with the latest kernel and Marvell 88SE6111 chipset because there is no support for it in the pata_marvell kernel module.
When I browse kernel 2.6.25-rc8 sources by Web Git, I found the file :
[linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git] / drivers / ata / pata_marvell.c source :
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=drivers/ata/pata_marvell.c;h=a81f25d872355df8dad4d52b04103bdde9ad640c;hb=6fdf5e67fe8d3c83500dad9acae985132c2459a3
pata_marvell.c is the file for ide support in Marvell Chipset. In this file, there is only support for :
Marvell 88SE6101
Marvell 88SE6121
Marvell 88SE6123
Marvell 88SE6145
This is support is with these lines 191 to 197 :
static const struct pci_device_id marvell_pci_tbl[] = {
192 { PCI_DEVICE(0x11AB, 0x6101), },
193 { PCI_DEVICE(0x11AB, 0x6121), },
194 { PCI_DEVICE(0x11AB, 0x6123), },
195 { PCI_DEVICE(0x11AB, 0x6145), },
196 { } /* terminate list */197 };

Can you patch the pata_marvell.c file and replace
static const struct pci_device_id marvell_pci_tbl[] = {
192 { PCI_DEVICE(0x11AB, 0x6101), },
193 { PCI_DEVICE(0x11AB, 0x6121), },

------- Comment #1 from [email protected] 2008-04-08 09:13 ------- The driver has only been tested with the chipsets listed. I've been unable to extract documentation from Marvell to support the others. If you can work with the Mandrake people and verify that the relevant identifier works then that would be useful and the id can then get added for the 6111.
The newer chips sort of do AHCI so are handled better by the AHCI driver (6141/6145) now it has some workarounds for where they differ from the standard.
