PIO4 cdroms do work, or at least my DVDROM did with this driver. Philippe Houdoin was under the impression at one time that the ATAPI layer has bugs - anyone know if this was confirmed?
However more worrying is that I tried this driver for the second time, and I had strange data loss issues again after a month. I can't describe what, why or how... or even if it is this drivers fault, so you can treat this as slight FUD if you want - but I don't get the problem with the standard Be driver (IDE h/w Intel BX, Fujitsu and Seagate UDMA/33 HD's)

I'm wary of replacing such sensitive parts of the system, but had a problem with my CF adapter that required a brave solution.
I have a 3 1/2" adapter that accepts Compact Flash cards attached to the primary IDE bus as the slave drive. The standard BeOS driver locked up at boot unless IDE DMA was set to OFF for both devices on that bus, which as you can imagine slows the system down a lot.
With the replacement driver installed as an add-on it all works fine. I have an IBM ATA-100 drive and while I don't notice a speed-up on this, it isn't any slower either. Great work!!

Hello! Could someone please explain me how I can get the Promise FastTrack 100 TX2 controller to work under BeOS PE Max Edition 2.1? Or does it not work? Thank you very much for your help!

CF support is broken because the internal driver interface has changed. Be never published the source code of the CF driver, i.e. to support it, it has to be rewritten from scratch. Some time ago I thought about doing that but as I have no CF module laying around, I didn't bother.
|
|
| also, CF support... |

Hi. Just wanted to let you know that this driver fixed some odd issues I was seeing with my Dell Latitude CPi, which uses the CMD 646, which the r5 driver only weakly supports.
However, losing the CF capability sucks. Any hope of adding this functionality to your driver? Thanks.

The R5 BFS has a bug (well, the mkbfs acually).
I would suggest you grab the DANO mkbfs and make the 80GB BFS partition with that.

I just bought the UDMA 133 tx2 from Promise along with an 80 gig udma 133 disc from Maxtor.
I made the boot disc from the image file, it boots the disc, loads the kernel and all other stuff from the 80 gig(udma133) disc, LnLauncher starts but then the problems starts. Tracker, Deskbar, media_add_server crashes. WHY ?
tried to send an email, the mail_deamon crashed.
I really need some help.
Yours

BeOS can run raid but not off IDE raid. Be's raid capabilities was for hard core setups so if your not scsi your out of luck. add a hard drive to a normal IDE non raid controller & your good to go.

| Help needed installing BeOS on HPT370 IDE RAID controller partition |
|

I have an Abit motherboard with the HighPoint HPT370 IDE RAID controller on-board.
On the controller I have two drives set up in a Raid 0 configuration (data striping across the two drives... so they act as one larger drive). On this I just have Windows2000 and some free space.
I made a bootable CD of BeOS (Max 2.1) and it worked fine except it didnt recognize my HPT370 so i had no place to install onto.
So I download the IDE replacement driver</a> from Bebits, which includes support for the HPT370. It included a utility to make a boot floppy with support for the HPT370 included. I used this with the CD I made and got the installer up and running and this time it recognized my drives on the HPT370...
EXCEPT it didn't show them set up properly. Instead of showing one large drive with a big NTFS partition on it and some free space (remember I have the two drives in a RAID 0 striping configuration), it showed two seperate drives with nothing on them. So it kind of seems like if I installed onto one of them I would end up REALLY messing up my NTFS partition and all.
So my question is does anyone know how to get BeOS to properly recognize my RAID setup? I was thinking the driver would just recognize it right since the RAID 0 config is set up in the BIOS for the HPT370 itself.

Currently, I'm trying to add support, but there are only the FreeBSD sources (no linux support AFAIK; one experimental code got removed from kernel sources), and so far my attempts to pinch code from FreeBSD failed for the CMD 680. I'll try to get further info, but meanwhile it doesn't look good :(

Well this is rather embarrassing. I have set up many of these machines & worked on a total of 5. Always was able to get Be up & stable on the ata 66 controllers. Now I have been blessed/cursed with a BP6 with an attitude... My friend gave it to me & used to complain about it just sucking. I have set up many of these I could never figure out what it's deal was... now it's mine & I sat down with it for the first time today... Any one wanna buy it? Is there any way to revise & or release a HPT366 optimized contrller driver to stop these damn lock ups? System is fine on ata33 but once you switch the drives to the 66 it simply WILL NOT work. This really confuttels me for the other bp6's I had this working like a charm on the ata66 & also scsi controllers. I was all excited about getting this system & now I'm more in the mood to pipe bomb Abit as some reading led me to this being a really well known issue & it *Should have been fixed in the latest BIOS... hmm yes well latest Bios for the bp6 was over a year ago & seems to have failed to fix this issue. PIPE BOMBS AWAY!!!!!!

Here is my problem:
With my WinXP drive on the Promise Primary Master, BeOS on the Promise Secondary Master and the CD-RW on the Via Primary Master, BeOS would not boot past the fourth icon. The only fix for this was to move the drive to the Via Secondary controller (or so I thought). On a whim I moved the drive back to the Promise controller, and then switched the CD-RW to the Via Secondary Master (leaving the primary one free) and voila, it booted! Is this something for which there is an easy fix (other than my work-around)? I currently have the IDE replacement drivers installed as a user add-on.

Got new installation with the PCI CARD:

The card seems to use a CMD chip (0x1095) and card ID is 680.
IDE r0.5 does not seem to managed it.
maybe r0.6 ;-))

The boot image only works for CD-Boot, i.e. you insert the floppy disk and the Boot-CD and boot via floppy. It doesn't work if you boot your HD partition as all drivers (including the IDE driver) would be read from HD. There is no way of forcing BeOS to load a specific driver from somewhere.

when I try to boot from your boot image I get a severe error and a debugger window.
Is there another way of including the u100 module into the kernel while booting (linux like?)

Currently, I'm recoding the entire driver to be able to make it open-source. As I'm very short of time (sorry to all those who haven't received a reply during the last couple of weeks), I cannot give a time frame. The new driver will be a combined SCSI/IDE driver (take a look at NewOS - there is a development version of it), so adding stuff like USB support *should* be possible. But as said: I have no time to do that right now.

If IZ is looking to add Firewire, we ought to get some developers together with their developers and work on a driver or module that we can add-on to BeOS to accomplish this.

I'm not a coder, but what would be the feasibility of adding fire wire drives, or forking the driver to support firewire hard drives? Iz Technolgy, the people who do the BeOS based Radar24 hard drive recorder, have posted a message on the BeGroovy forum looking for a firewire hard drive capability for their device. The idea is great, and the community needs this support eventually, heck what good is a media OS that doesn't live and breathe firewire!
If there's anything I can do to help out, I'll be glad to try stuff.

Hi, i read the last post, about the Promise ATA133 controller. That's great.
I'm buying a new system and will have an Epox board in it, i'm between two choices, the 8KHA+ with ATA100 or the new (i can get it way cheaper) 8K3A with an ATA133 controller. It's a Highpoint i think, though i can't verify it. As anyone tried the driver on this one?

I have been using 4.3 gamma release to boot into my BeOS partition(s) connected through a Promise Ultra 100 controller card with no problems other than a tendency to have slow boot and shutdown times. The previous 2 updates have caused me problems...... but not this update! :)
Boot-up and shutdown are much smoother and once again I have a typically BeOS fast boot-up..... YAY!!
Thank you once again for enabling me to finally link my partitions together Thomas Kurschel :)
