apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected
** Description changed: I have older server motherboard Supermicro P3TDDE, with additional IDE controller Promise PDC20267 (FastTrak100) on it. Once I tried to install Ubuntu 9.04 onto the disk attached to this controller, and failed. libata driver is able to detect the controller, identify the hard drive and read partition table from it, but with following read/write activity on this drive, errors start to occur. In dmesg I can also see drive speed decreasing from UDMA100 to UDMA66, 33 and PIO4. Then it becomes impossible to read/write to the drive at all. - So far I use Ubuntu 8.04 with kernel 2.6.24 on this system. With it, the - drive is detected and operated completely well. This kernel uses older - driver version for IDE subsystem, so the drive is detected as /dev/hde, - not /dev/sda. Did not try Ubuntu 8.10 so far. May be something wrong - happened during porting old Promise driver from IDE to libata. As I - heard, SUSE still use older IDE driver in their kernels for old Promise - controllers support. May be Ubuntu should turn on similar option. It - seems this is an upstream bug, to be also reported to kernel.org folks. + So far I use Ubuntu 8.04 with kernel 2.6.24 on this system.
