Hello all,

I wanted to try out the recent changes regarding usb, so I've pulled
for the first time yesterday with bin/rc/pull and it seems like it
went fine.

However, the new 9pcf kernel I built out of the recently pulled
sources panics. I don't know what would be relevant for you so I have
not copied anything yet, I have just noted that it complains that
/boot/kfs does not exist.
My currently working kernel was built with a customized (by Eric)
sdiahci.c (attached to the mail) that would work with my sata drive
(on a Lenovo T61), and I don't know if those changes were merged into
the sdiahci.c from the distribution. So it is only a guess, but could
it be that the default driver doesn't find my drive, hence can't find
my  fossil partition either and finally defaults to /boot/kfs and
fails at it as well?
I'm also using a 9load that Eric gave me for that driver to work, it
is attached as well.
Just for kicks, I have tried rebuilding another kernel with the fresh
sources and this modified sdiahci.c but it fails with the errors
attached in build.txt.

It's no hurry because I still have a working system with my previous
kernel but it would be nice if I could build a kernel that is both
recent enough to have the latest usb changes and capable of working
with my drive in sata mode.

Thanks,
Mathieu.
