Boot problem with Promise SATA Fasttrack S150TX2 Plus
Put on the second SATA drive for the array then I'm sure it will work.
Dennis Peere wrote: Dear All, I seem to have a boot problem with the Fasttrack S150TX2 Plus controller. The manual clearly states that you need to create an array, only with one disk connected to the controller. When I create an array, I can't seem to boot from CDROM anymore. When I try to boot from CDROM I get the following message : Disk I/O error Replace the disk, and press any key When I disconnect the SATA cable from the disk, I can boot from CDROM without any problem. I've performed the following tests on an Intel SE440BX-2 (Seattle), Intel AL440LX (Atlanta) & Aopen MX3S-T mainboard: Boot from CD without Riser Card or Promise controller = OK Boot from CD = OK Boot from CD + Promise controller = OK Boot from CD with SATA HD connected (No Array configured) = OK Boot from CD works but HD is not accessible because there is no array configured Boot from CD with SATA HD connected (With Array configured) = NOK When trying to access the CD it gives the following error = Disk I/O error Replace the disk, and press any key Boot from CD with normal IDE HD connected (No Array configured) = OK Boot from CD works but HD is not accessible because there is no array configured Boot from CD with normal HD connected (With Array configured) = NOK When trying to access the CD it gives the following error = Disk I/O error Replace the disk, and press any key Can someone help me out please ?
