Giulio, I am not using the VIA boards IDE/SATA controller, only a PCI based HostRaid controller from promise. The onboard controller is actually a SATA and IDE controller: I just set it up to not use SATA due to boot problems with the Promise card if the onboard SATA support is enabled.
As of today, none of the kernel updates to date have fixed the issue, I'm currently searching for a decent alternative for the promise controller (Non-RAID, 4 port PCI-SATA controller) and intend to replug the softraid arrays to that controller. I will post follow-ups once I have replaced it. Regards, Rudi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
