And how did you do that? |
| 14 |
I have DMA enabled at the kernel level (USE DMA BY DEFAULT), |
| 15 |
but I don't know how to enable UDMA! hdparm -X66 ?? |

When I got this problem the 1st time I asked for help at gentoo-user. |
| 22 |
This message was also posted to gentoo-user. The reason I posted to |
| 23 |
gentoo-dev has to do with the following reasons: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
1. Try to get some answer for a potential serious problem I couldn't |
| 26 |
get from gentoo-user or Forum archives. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
2. To somehow alert developers to the problem. I had some other |
| 29 |
distros in the past, including Linux From Scratch, and never had this |
| 30 |
kind of problem. So there must be something wrong with the scripts |
| 31 |
or the way (order?) the scripts are running. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
3. I would like to know how to debug the scripts. May |
| 34 |
be I could help. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Sorry anyway. |
