I'm setting up Linux on ASUS A7V266-E board, Athlon XP 1800+ machine and have the following problem: My new IBM 40GB hard drive on ide0 (alone, master) controller is always get set at boot to UDMA2 mode, not UDMA5. The second identical drive on onboard promise controller is getting set to UDMA5 and runs much faster. I looked in BIOS setup, and BIOS sets the first ide0 drive to UDMA5, which at least says that cable is the correct one, and that it is linux boot which changes the setting to udma2. Here are the related pieces of dmesg. As you see I use RH rawhide 2.4.16 kernel, which is something like 2.4.17-pre8, I think # dmesg Linux version 2.4.16-0.13 (bhcompile@stripples.devel.redhat.com) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)) #1 Dec 14 05:30:28 EST 2001 ...............................
