also, a good debugging technique is to add support for all devices first |
| 2 |
then eliminate (work top down). |
| 3 |
so modularize all the sata devices available in the kernel, then if it works |
| 4 |
you can start taking some at, wittling it down. |
| 5 |
(i know with my nw8440 the sata was originally labeled incorrectly in the |
| 6 |
output of lspci) |
| 7 |
...if it still doesn't work then you know it's not a problem with the |
| 8 |
drivers :D |
