Little problem here with hdparm and DMA. I'm using an AMD K6-2 350MHz on
some kind of amibios mobo with "Ultra DMA Enabled" in CMOS but I cannot
set "using dma" for the drive(s).
[root]# /sbin/hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)
dmesg returns:
PCI_IDE: unknown IDE controller on PCI bus 00 device 78, VID=10b9,
DID=5229
PCI_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
PCI_IDE: simplex device: DMA disabled
ide0: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
PCI_IDE: simplex device: DMA disabled

Any thoughts?
