I am unable to enable dma on a hard disk that I know supports it.
| Code Sample | hdparm -d1 /dev/hda
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = (off) |
yes I am sudo-ed bash. yes I know it supports dma. I previously had this machine successfully running gentoo linux (with dma) and I can mount it that way from knopppix.
also maybe this has something to do with it?
in the console (virtual terminal)
