So I have southbridge VT8237A and two(!) HDDs attached to SATA chanels of this
controller. I Prefer to have RAID on it.
When I install FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE (from floppies) it`s detected only one HDD and
write that my RAID storage DEGRADED... I think that it is a bug in the kernel.
I`m right. There is a bug in the "ata" driver!
We have:
/usr/src/sys/dev/ata/ata-chepset.c, line 4771:
{ ATA_VIA8237A, 0x00, 0, 0x00, ATA_SA150, "8237A" },
But ot must be:
{ ATA_VIA8237A, 0x00, 7, 0x00, ATA_SA150, "8237A" },
after this improvement and recompilation the kernel anything work fine!
