1 Hello,
2
3 given a mainboard having 2 SATA controllers. One VIA (from the chipset) and
4 one additional Promise SATA. CPU is a AMD64.
5
6 Up to now i had 2 SATA disks attached to the VIA controller.
7
8 The kernel (2.6.14-r2) is built monolithic in regards of the SATA chips.
9
10 Now i added a third harddisk and i recogized that the new disk was inserted
11 before the other two. It seems that the promise kernel part is loaded before
12 the VIA driver.
13
14 So my question - is there a kernel parameter (to be given to grub.conf) which
15 instructs the kernel to process the VIA kernel part first ?
16
17 regards
18 Petric
