[LinuxBIOS] question about Filo boot SATA hard drive

[AlexHuang]

Hi all, 

   I try to use Filo.05 to boot my linux on SATA HD. 

But it always halt at "Loading kernel..."

Could anybody help me to solve this trouble??

 

Thanks a lot

can you put some debug output in blockdev.c
  
static void *read_sector(unsigned long sector)

?

One way to do this is to try the patch I sent to the list a month
ago. It's attached to this message too.

Please make sure to enable DEBUG_TIMER, DEBIG_BLOCKDEV, DEBUG_IDE and
DEBUG_EXT2 in Config after applying the patch.
