Hi David, |

AFAIK "ata_piix.c" is developed for intel SATA controllers integrated on |
| 21 |
PIIX chipsets only. |
| 22 |
Why do you expect it should support Adaptec or Marvell controllers too? |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
U need some another driver for it, therefore start kernel configuration, |
| 25 |
have a look at SCSI device support ---> SCSI low-level drivers ---> |
| 26 |
[*] Serial ATA (SATA) support |
| 27 |
and find if something on next lines fits to your controller. |
| 28 |
If not, then goooogle can be helpful to find it (if it exist). |
