>Description:
Promise Ultra33 IDE cards do not work. The source appears to have support for them, the PCI probe finds them, but they do not end up working. I fiddled considerable with the configuration and building the kernel. I've looked at the source, but it is unintelligable. Carl Mascott, cmascott@world.std.com, had a similar experience as me; he ended up returning the card. We both sent email to freebsd-questions
and got no response except for each other.
>How-To-Repeat:
Get a machine with onboard IDE + a Promise Ultra33 PCI IDE card. Attempt to use any hard drives on the Promise card.
>Fix:
No known fix.

 Use the ata driver instead, that works with both the Ultra and Fasttrak in
 both the 33 and the 66 versions.

 Thank Soren.
 
 I just looked at the head sys/i386/config/LINT
 vs. the 3.3 LINT. Is the ata controller an option for hard
 drives in 3.3? It doesn't look like it. The "hack" code is
 even #if 0'ed in head. (The head LINT still has comments
 about what I tried being about right. I do I believe have
 what it describes as well, an Intel PIIX? IDE on the
 motherboard, though the comment isn't clear if that's the
 "first" PCI IDE and the Promise is the "second" or
 otherwise since the Intel is on the motherboard (yeah,
 I can imagine "motherboard" still can imply "PCI" but
 I'm pretty clueless at this level.))
