Is this a reference to the Ultra ATA 66 Controller card? My system has one
of those along with a 13.6 GB 7200 RPMUltra ATA Hard Drive. When I boot in
mode 7 (debug) and enter (after # prompt) els /fs, I get only cd0 cd1
no hd1 as I’d expect. The pkg files don’t exist. and the boot hangs.

I don’t think that the poster of this response is authorized to reply for
QSSL,
but again, neither am I! :slight_smile:

I think he is correct that it is not currently supported.

However, one should not take his “no” response to mean that QNX will not (in
the future) support this card!

It seems to be a fairly popular card, and if the Mfgrs give the appriopriate
DOCs to QSSL, then it seems likely to me that they will support it in the
future. (Remember, I do NOT speak for QSSL, this is simply my own
conjecture)

Steve Tomkins emailed me that qnx does not support this card and he doesn’t
know when they will support it.

On 3 Oct I received a response (to a “bug report” I submitted on this issue)
from Charles Lawrence at qnx. He said, “This is an issue they are working
on right now - please monitor and participate in our newsgroups at
nntp.qnx.com and you will know as soon as we do.”

Yeah, I ran into that. I assume it’s a news group for “licensed”
developers. I think we can just keep on in this news group, which is
attended by a few people from qnx, such as Steve Tomkins.

Bad news for all Promise customers. See below:


At the present time QNX RTP is not working with Promise IDE
controllers. We may be supporting these in the future.

I use to run linux Mandrake 7.0. Now it didnt support the promise
controller ethier, however there was some linux command you could do to
have it still use the harddrive just without the 66mb data rate. I will
try to find the info and post it. Is there a way to due this with QNX?
