Message-ID: <13ec35777817500abfcc6c8da0224351.squirrel@thechecks.ca> Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2010 17:22:51 -0400 From: "Paul Check" <paul@...checks.ca> To: "Mark Knecht" <markknecht@...il.com> Cc: "Tejun Heo" <tj@...nel.org>, "Linux Kernel List" <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, "linux-ide@...r.kernel.org" <linux-ide@...r.kernel.org> Subject: Re: Drives missing at boot That's unfortunate. FYI I have continued to be trouble free, but my processor is a bit weaker than Mark's, although I would find it surprising that this would cause a problem. Also, FYI Mark, I have 12GB of Corsair RAM, and have it bumped up to the Intel XMP profile.
