From a recent interview:
"Bernd: Thomas gave us the code for the IDE driver, the new one, we fixed a bunch of stuff and give it back, he will then give it to Haiku."

When is this driver due to go public?
Thanks,

I have problems too :/ Zeta doesn't see my fourth hdd connected to this controller, but see raid controller and ide controller (devices list). Anyway, I don't want RAID, just IDE.

I've tried many things, but there's no way to get the hard drives recognized on my new Gigabyte 7DPXDW P motherboard, with an integrated PromiseMBFastTrack133 Lite (20276 chipset) controller.
Enabling/disabling DMA in BeOS or ATA/RAID in the BIOS gives no result as well.
I've 2 hard disks connected: both Seagate Barracuda, 1 ATA IV 80Gb and another ATA V 160Gb.
Any idea would be appreciated, thank you! :)

Is there a list of recent/current Intel chipsets known to work with the IDE driver? (with DMA and everything)
Been using it with my i845-based Asus P4-XP (something) mobo, and it works great AFAIK. DMA works now, and that's one thing I can't live without. :)
Thank you, Thomas!

Forgot to mention the cardID: 6268 - so is this card supported by the driver? If yes, then it's maybe the configuration with SPAN1+0/1+1 that confuses the driver?

ozzie4: How did you get this driver to work with the Promise Fasttrak100 TX2?
I have a FastTrak100 TX2 but it is not detected, so my HD does not show up in BeOS...
I have a special setup where I just use the controller as an additional IDE-controller, without RAID, so I have 2 HDs connected on the first port as SPAN1+1.
Maybe it's a problem if only one HD is connected...?
Thomas, is the Fasttrak100 really supported in this version?
Thanks for any help, I desperately need the controller working in BeOS because my DVD-burner took the last onboard IDE-port and my Zeta-installation is disconnected now:(

When I installed this driver as system add-on, I had different results:
One time BeOS boots very fast and everything works fine (and faster!), exept the start-sound crackles a bit at its end. But after that everything's OK.
The other time it boots very slow, the start-sound is totaly distorted and then all sounds (CL-Amp, M-Player...) are totaly distorted.
It's irregular. One time fast, one time not...
I love and I need my sounds, what could it be?

hi,
I can install Max v2 and it works fine, but when I install the IDE replacement driver, beOS crashes...
I have a slighty different chipset: Intel 82801DB Ultra ATA and a western digital WDC WD800JB 80gb HD.
I also have the idea that this hd is much too slow in r5, < 1 mb/s copy is slow right for this kind of hd?
I think the ide driver doesn't support this chipsets, hope thomas can add support to his driver,
regards,
Tim

It seems to fail on ATA and locks on ATAPI. Without an IDE Replacement Floppy, it doesn't even get that far.
Any ideas?

as far as i know, MAX don't contain this driver.
So, does it work without IDE Replacement and stops after installing new IDE driver?

Hi!
I am running a new ASUS P4P800 Deluxe Mobo with a Western Digital UDMA 100 60GB HD.
I can install the "Max" edition, downloaded from bebits, by checking all the "boot" parameters except "safe mode". However, when I reboot to the HD, it seems to halt saying something about the IDE driver.
This is what the specs say I have for controllers on my board:
South Bridge:
-2 x UltraDMA 100/66/33
-2 x Serial ATA, RAID 0 (Microsoft Windows XP only)
VIA6410 RAID controller:
-2 x UltraDMA 100 support four hard drives
-RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, JBOD
I am using the IDE connectors for the HD. Also, I have a Windows ME partition that is working just fine with this drive/controller.
Thanks for any help you can give me!
Michael

its a limitation ALL OS's suffer, its because LBA has run out..
LBA is the systemd designed to let you use more than 504MB on one HDD... it adresses the drive in blocks of 504MB. But its run out, and theres no defined protocol on how to go higher.
Advice is - stay below 137. BIG disks like 160GB are very likely to be VERY unstable, its too new a technology

excellent driver! with it i was able to install beos onto my maxtor 160gig ata/133 drive! (nf7 mobo, dont know what the controller is..)
one gripe tho, not sure if it has to do with the driver or what, but, the extended partition (and all those within it) is ignored, and not detected (correctly) due to it extending beyond the 137gig barrier.. is this a problem with the driver, or is it in the internals of beos itself? and if its in the driver, can we get a fix?? :) it would be great to mount my second be partition (which i mistakenly(?) created when partitioning the drive.. )!! thanks again!

Well I have a Sony Vaio laptop which comes without floppy. It boot BeOS without any problem. So this is certainly a problem with the way the bios deals with this rather than a beos-thing.

Howdy,
BeOS was hardcoded to believe there was a floppy device for booting, and searches for the availability of this device during the kernel loading process.
Your system obviously is one of those that doesn't like that probing of non-existing hardware. One of my machines is that way as well. Boots Zeta, but takes longer (probe timeout externally enforced) to boot when drive disabled.
The only thing you can do is what you are doing. Zeta should allow you to switch it off, but you will see a two or three second stall in the boot process.
Have fun!

"I'm not sure if this problem has something to do with IDE replacement though."
It probably doesn't. I have a machine without a floppydrive, and it boots just fine. The only thing is that it takes a little while to notice that the floppydrive isn't there. I solved this by deleting the floppydisk-driver.

Hi,
If I set on the setup of my BIOS that there are no floppies isntalled (Drive A: and B: -> NONE), BeOS doesn't boot anymore. If I change it to 1.44mb, then BeOS boots normally.
I also noticed that doesn't matter if is there a floppy physically connected on the flat cable or not, it seems it just check to BIOS, if there is no drive described on the BeOS, there is no Boot.
My system board is an A7V133 (ViaKT133A), with the last BIOS update. My BeOS is PE 5.03 (BeOS MAX).
I'm not sure if this problem has something to do with IDE replacement though.
Regards,
Icewarp.

Have a SiS Chipset PC that would like to install BeOS.
When tried to use BeOS5PE it installed OK but when rebooted locked at Loading.... This is similar to what happened when installed Win98 1st ed with Buggy SiS chipset driver but worked fine when got the updated SiS driver.
If not available would like to try to write a BeOS SiS chipset driver.

Excellent work! Only problem was result of using WinME Formatted Floppy to make the IDE Boot Floppy did not work with BeOS. Switched to a Max4 1.66MB Floppy and worked OK. Then rebooted to WinME and the std WinME Floppy was OK but could not tell when was done. Both the std 1.44MB WinME Floppy and Max4 1.66MB Floppy made BeOS IDE Boot Floppies that work OK.

Set your mother board on fire. Check your revision & make sure
your system is up to par as far the the cap & VTT fixes go. I have worked on many bp6 & they work or they don't back when abit would RMA them you could send a bad one in for RMA but you'd get it back just as useless as you sent it in. If you have one of the boards thats freezing up make sure your caps & VTT are to spec (check bp6.com) if they are this driver will not fix or help you. As a rule some people with problematic bp6 find it's best to use an IDE controller (PCI) & avoid the onboard all together. Another thing to note is dont use the ata66 & 33 at the same time. If you find however running off the ata33 the system still locks up it's time to realize it's probably not the IDE ata all. Since Celerons where never meant to be run in SMP it could be tons of problems but I had one personalyl & sold it after a while. It ran paired 500's it could be stable for a few days & run great then out of no where it wuld crash 100% of the time for 3 days then be fine half a day... etc - the board was replaced by the distributer once & Rma'd once... all parts where swapped out to ensure it wasn't ram or anything else in the board but to no avail everything failed even running single cpu... There are lots of people out there that want these boards cuz they want to tinker & fool with these problems & or what ever they see as being good about it so see if some one wants to buy your board & get a real dual mobo. I was upfront with mine & said it was a nightmare but I had TONS of people still ask to buy it... orders from the psych ward? maybe... ;)

Just to clarify the reason why the boot disk only helps if you have a CD-Rom: If you boot a CD-Rom via floppy, the IDE driver is read from floppy by the boot loader as the BIOS doesn't provide any support to access the CD-Rom, so the driver is urgently needed to read the CD-Rom. But if you boot a HD partition, the boot loader can use the BIOS to read the IDE driver from hard disk and therefore ignores the driver stored on floppy. Though it's a bit stupid, there is no way changing this behaviour. In terms of burning a BeOS CD: I think you can treat image.be as an ISO-image, writing it directly to a CD, but I haven't tried that.

The problem here is that while in theory you should be able to use the IDE reaplacement drivers boot disk to boot PE or any other Be install off a newer IDE controller to add the new driver it simply does not work. If you are going to run Be off a IDE controller that requires the IDE replacement driver then you need to either do what the dude before me said & boot off a normal IDE controller add the IDE replacement drivers & then move the hard drive back to said wonky controller. Or get a pre set up install with the drivers already added. I'd plug my install right here as I just updated it with the tons of updates that popped up in the last 4 days but my network has been flaking out so I'll not stres it ATM by saying DL THIS HERE! heh. But you can grab Max edition or Dev Edition - they are all BeOS PE R5 & contain the image.be to run from linux or windows.

The boot disk can only be used in conjunction with a boot CD. The easiest way is probably to connect the hard disk to the normal on-board controller, boot into BeOS, install the driver and move the disk back to the HPT controller. I know that you can create a boot CD out of image.be, but I haven't done it and thus cannot tell you how to do that.

Hello. I have Abit VP6 board with Highpoint 370 IDE. I have no Windows, just Debian linux installed. I have downloaded PE5 for linux, and have image.be placed on the first partition of the primary master on the Highpoint controller (hde in linux).
I can switch the hde1 (the first partition) between ext2 and VFAT. It's size is 3GB. I've been totally unable to boot PE5. I have tried the PE5 for linux bootdisk (no support for HPT370) and the IDE replacement driver's bootdisk (with support for HPT370). Is the bootdisk only for installing Be5 Pro, or can I assume it's equally for PE5?
I have image.be both in the root directory of the partition, and inside a directory called 'beos'.
