Carlo,

From the driver code:

/* Don't use LBA48 on ALi devices before rev 0xC5 */
hwif->no_lba48 = (m5229_revision <= 0xC4) ? 1 : 0;

0xC5 is revision 197 your system has a revision 196 chipset.

The inabilty to use LBA48 with that chipset version is why Linux is saying:

hda: cannot use LBA48 - full capacity 320173056 sectors (163928 MB)
hda: 268435456 sectors (137438 MB) w/7936KiB Cache, CHS=16709/255/63,

and restricting you to use only 137 GB of that drive.

2.6 knows it is a 160GB drive but the chipset can't handle anything
above 137GB.

Cheers,
Dave
