Subject: Re: [ros-general] Problem booting ReactOS from Dos
I've got a 440BX Based board too! Same problem! My
board is a MSI 6163 BX Master. I've had problems like
that with Low level format tools, & with Windows 98
(on after first boot, I then have to boot in safe mode
and install the driver from a floppy) since it doesn't
know what the onboard promise ata66 controller is.
If the problem is the promise ata66 controller, it's possible to add support
for this controller. Currently, atapi can use promise ultra100 and
ultra100tx controllers. If you know the pci device id of the ata66
controller, you can add it to PciNativeController. If you cannot compile
ros, I can build the atapi driver for you, if I know the pci device id or
the chip description (PDC20???). The only risk is that nobody has tested
this conntroller and in the worst case, atapi can mix your disk.
