Hi ,
I have u-boot 1.3.1 installed in a sequoia board with ppc4xxEPx. The "pci" command lists out normal PCI cards in the prompt. (Bridge, Multimedia etc.).
But When I use a PCI-SATA card, the s/m gets hangs, most of the time. Else it will not list out the Device in the "pci" command.
In normal Desktop PC , the BIOS support SATA drives. Is there any option to support PCI-SATA card in the u-boot. The same card is listed as a Mass Storage device in my Desktop PC. when I enabled SATA in BIOS. Is there any Workaround to Avoid the Hanging issue.
but One thign I notice is that , the Board is PCi v2.2 Spec and the SATA card (SIL3114) is PCI v 2.3 Spec. Will this give any phase difference problem, that gives this instability. Eventually the linux also can not detect the card (In case Its booted). Any suggestion is appreciated.
