#18792 closed bug (duplicate)

Installer fails to detect a hard drive on laptop

Reported by: Redysz Owned by: nobody
Priority: normal Milestone: R1/beta5
Component: Drivers/Disk/AHCI Version: R1/Development
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: #18536 Blocking:
Platform: All

Description (last modified by Redysz)

The installer for R1beta4 detects the hard drive in the laptop without any problem, and I can format it properly so as to install Haiku. The R1Development version (hrev57576-x86_64) does not see the same drive. It is impossible to install the system.

Laptop: Lenovo IdeaPAD 110 (trying to install on real machine). Laptop/Enivronment details in attachments.

My steps:

  1. Download haiku-r1beta4-x86_64-anyboot.iso
  2. Make USB-boot with Rufus 4.4 (no options can be modified so I used "standard" ones)
  3. Boot with this USB stick on Legacy bios mode
  4. Select install Haiku
  5. Hard drive visible

~Alternative reality:~

  1. Download haiku-master-hrev57576-x86_64-anyboot.iso
  2. Make USB-boot with Rufus 4.4 (no options can be modified so I used "standard" ones)
  3. Boot with this USB stick on Legacy bios mode
  4. Select install Haiku
  5. Hard drive is not visible

I've tried to format hard drive with gparted, make in "unallocated" and others - nothing works.

Can you attach the system log (from /var/log/syslog) for both versions?

AHCI driver seems to be stuck in a loop of:

614	KERN: ahci: Enable: Starting port already running!
615	KERN: ahci: Disable: port 0 error DMA engine still running
616	KERN: ahci: PortReset: port 0 unable to shutdown!
617	KERN: ahci: ResetDevice: port 0 unable to hard reset device

so the device can't be enabled but also can't be disabled. Then it gives up after a few tries.

Please try booting with ACPI disabled and see what happens (it may just not boot at all, however.)

Milestone: UnscheduledR1/beta5

I think we should keep this in he beta5 milestone since it seems to be a regression (worked fine in beta4)

Looks like it's reading only 0xff values from PCI.

ahci: cap: Interface Speed Support: generation 15
ahci: cap: Number of Ports: 32 (raw 0x1f)

Does the device need a power up?

Then the hard drive is not visible in both (development and beta4) by the installer.

Is that question for me? Device is a standard hdd. Model: WD5000LPCX-24VHAT0

The pictures in #18536 show a similar error from the AHCI driver. From the complete syslog in that ticket and the rather narrow revision range in the other, we should be able to find a solution?

I looked more closely at the syslogs and I see that #18536 has the same SATA controller. So I'm going to close this as a duplicate of the earlier ticket, they are similar enough that this is very likely the same problem.

Let's continue the dscussion there.
