Hi! Here is driver for marvell(for now) ata and sata chipsets
They are present on some motherboards as secondary ata controller but are unsupported with tiger and leopard
So I did a try to insert pci id`s into AppleVIAATA.kext with known and usefull chipsets
- 0x611111ab - used at P5K-SE motherboard (Marvell 88se6111)
- 0x614511ab - used at Intel D975XBX2 and ASUS P5WDG2 WS Professional motherboard (Marvell 88se6145)
Installation
- backup original AppleVIAATA.kext at /System/Library/Extensions
- copy attached kext into /System/Library/Extensions
- start Terminal and run: sudo chown -Rv root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions
- remove /System/Library/Extensions.mkext and reboot
Post bugs here

Still no love. Just like
Still no love. Just like before I see the driver is loaded in ioreg and it detects 2 channels, but none of the drives attached to the channels are accessible. Another note, this controller has 4 sata ports, not sure if it's using a port multiplier or not.

Hrm, it seems that 10.5.4 is when this all changed. I'll try to snag the older driver from a 10.5.2 machine and see if it works or if it is some other interaction.

Try look into System Profiler

Nope, just one instance. Seems they broke this driver/card somehow in 10.5.4+.

This driver is for VIA chipsets 8))) not for Marvell
So nothing broken - just unsupported 8))) even via my smart hack
Need trying make support via another nonVIA-based chipset driver - may be it will work..
