ide - IDE device driver             Back to the Source Index

This is the ChaOS IDE device driver. CHS drives are no longer supported, so drives need to be LBA-capable. UDMA is used if already switched on by BIOS (which usually does a good job of selecting the fastest possible mode). SATA drives work fine so long as the controller is set to IDE mode.

The whole driver is contained in main.html, only 750 lines of source code, so not difficult to maintain. ide.link is the project makefile.
