AROS AHCI SATA Driver bounty assigned!
« on: June 19, 2011, 07:21:10 AM »
The AHCI SATA Driver bounty has been assigned to Jason McMullan. The bounty aims extending AROS with support for SATA storage devices.

Jason has already a proven track record in AROS community by working previously on m68k port of AROS, completing the Kickstart ROM Replacement (Phase I) bounty.

The bounty is still open for donations! Check out bounty page on power2people.org

Just got confirmation from Jason this is going to be in the Aros 68K Kickstart ext rom to allow pci enabled Classic machines to boot off of sata drives.

And, 6 months later, it's finally in the tree.

Still needs some debugging on real hardware, and some hotplug support, but it appears to work fine in QEMU.
