Weird Hard Drive Issue
Hello,
Just got a new server and am having a problem with the hard drives. As of now it only has 1 hard drive (waiting for a shipment). This is hda . However, I get this message in server information of WHM:
hdc: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffef8)
hdc: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffef8)
hdc: no response (status = 0x0a), resetting drive
hdc: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffef8)
hdc: no response (status = 0x0a)
hdd: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffef8)
hdd: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffef8)
hdd: no response (status = 0x0a), resetting drive
hdd: IRQ probe failed (0xfffffef8)
hdd: no response (status = 0x0a)
Notice how they are all about hdc and hdd. hdd and hdc dont even exist, which is why the errors are coming like that. For example, hdparm /dev/hdd will say no device.
I had the DC check the bios and turn off primary slave and secondary master/slave, but these errors still come up.
Anybody have ideas to get rid of hdc and hdd trying to load up? I'm guessing its within the init stage.
BTW - this same thing happens on multiple kernels (custom compiled and rpm based).
System is redhat 9.

For future reference -
I solved this problem by adding ' hdc=noprobe hdd=noprobe ' to my grub.conf file.
