Re: [issue1158] Problems with a SATA DVD burner

:	I thought you had an A8V based box - the SATA burner isn't
:connected to the Promise controller at all it's connected to the VIA 6420
:controller, but atapicam is reporting the wrong channel. See the post
:where I put the atacontrol list in reply to Jeremy, atacontrol gets it
:right.
:
:	The Promise controller is driving a couple of hard discs, one of
:them carrying my hammer filesystem - no RAID.

    Ha.  I don't even know what all my boxes are.  Lets see.  I have
    three towers and six or seven shuttle cubes.  Two of the towers have
    A8N-SLI MB's, the third tower I don't know what it has.  The shuttle's
    are mostly AMD X2 based.

    The A8N-SLI's have VIA 6420 (SATA) and 8237's (UDMA133).

    It's possible that the soft RAID controllers are disabled in the
    BIOS on the A8N's.  I'll play with one of them and see if I can find it.
