We could do it (you can find list of known inside ahci.c), but unlike others, AHCI is an open specification, so that list will never be complete. Also on some chipsets AHCI support also depends on BIOS, so specification of just a chipset revisions can be inaccurate. > will the ataahci driver also dissapear soon? Yes, at least disabled. Same as most part of the atasiliconimage and the atamarvell. -- Alexander MotinReceived on Mon Apr 11 2011 - 09:45:37 UTC
