I use hdparm interactively, then once I feel I have a good setup going
(after a week or two of uptime and good usage) I'll add the string to
/etc/init.d/bootmisc
hdparm is the way to

Add "ide0=ata66" to your kernel boot params - I *think* this is
something like append "ide0=ata66" if you use lilo; I use LOADLIN, so
I'm not sur
nable UDMA
or UDMA 66 for that matter?

Not very much accurate I suppose. For me it works more or less
like bogomips: just a numbe

Good point!
Does anyone know how hdparm works? How accurate (in what sense) does
the figure reflect the performance (esp data read-write access rate) of
a tested hard drive?

It seems likely that the HPT366 is operating with DMA (not just
UDMA/66, but all kinds of DMA operations) disabled. Could you
show us the boot messages concerning the HPT366 controller?

Hi, everyone!
My system is Abit BP6 w/Dual Celeron 500MHz CPUs & 128MB PC-100 SDRAM on
board. One 18GB IBM UDMA-66 7200rpm HDD (master) & One 20GB IBM UDMA-66
7200rpm HDD (Slave) connected to the first ATA-66 channel.
I frist installed the Gentus Linux (Abit's RedHat-based distr
you need to compile your own driver for udma 66 check the archives for the
url, for maximum stability i suggest avoiding the dma66 controller (i have
bp6 too, but i am 100% scsi)

I couldn't get Corel Linux to work until I switched my drive from the
UDMA/66 port to the normal one (I have a BP6 mobo and UDMA/66 drive).
The benchmarks I've seen (eg on Thresh) show the /66 to be way faster.
Is there any way I can get this to work?
TIA
Some body know one Raid 0 & 1 card Udma 66
working with linux???
