Bug Description

Hello!

I tried Knot-3 on my machine with an on-board Promise controller

0000:00:0d.0 RAID bus controller: Promise Technology, Inc. PDC20579 SATAII 150 IDE Controller

As soon as the Kernel module has been loaded, the Kernel freezes.

After deactivating the controller in BIOS, the installation worked without any problems.

I tried the activate the controller after the installation, but the result is the same as booting the Kernel from cd.

Cheers

This is still true for the current Beta version of Efty Edge.

The 18 month support period for Edgy Eft 6.10 has reached its end of life. As a result, we are closing the linux-source-2.6.17 Edgy Eft kernel task. However, development has already began for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. It would be helpful if you could test the upcoming release and verify if this is still an issue - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . If the issue still exists, please update this report by changing the Status of the "linux" task from "Incomplete" to "New". We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Thanks!
