libata - sata - SIS chipset.

Tue Mar 9 19:29:10 UTC 2004

Recently bought a new system box - AMD64 3400, has SATA 200Gb HD - SIS
964 chipset.

I've tried various recent (ie. the latest) releases including regular
fedora and amd64 fedora, mandrake 9.2 amd64 and mandrake 10 - non of
which have support for the SIS controller.

http://www.linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html

suggests that support for SIS should have been available since early
March 2004 - too early to make it into any of the installers I've tried.

(There appear to be some workarounds as mentioned on the link above.)

Anyone know if libata is likely to make it into a fedora amd64 release
soon?
