Subject: [gentoo-user] disk problem after kernel update

1 Hello,
2
3 I've try to update kernel from 2.6.20-gentoo-r8 to 2.6.23-gentoo-r3. I've copied
4 config, run make oldconfig and then make.
5
6 At boot time the new kernel maps disks as hdax, but previous kernel mapped disks
7 as sdax. So, if I want to use new kernel I have to change fstab (that's not so
8 bad), but I have to setup DMA for the disk, and that's not possible (an error occur)

10 Did I something wrong? How to solve it?
