2.6 test3-bk7 & -mm3 : HPT374 - cable missdetection, lock-ups

Hi

first test run of 2.6 on Epox 8k9a3+ VIA KT400 VT8235,
HPT374 and 4 IBM Deskstar GXP120 80Gb on each chanel as master
Mandrake-cooker gcc-3.3.1

the 3rd and the 4th chanel of the HPT374 are saying that the used cable
is 40 wires, so it forces the drives in UDMA33 which i think causes the lock-
ups several seconds after booting in runlevel 1

tried enabling "ignore word94 validation bits", didn't change anything

any hints ?


no dmesg or logs available because of the hard lock-ups

.configs from test3-bk7 & test3-mm3
cp -a /proc/ide & /sys
are at http://varna.demon.co.uk/~svetlio/2.6test3bk7/
