Hello, I was wondering of there is a Kext for using a Jmicron IDE/ATA Controller?

I heard the Standard none in Kalyway causes kernel panics, of maybe there's another kext out there i can use for my Jmicron IDE controller on my GA-G33M-DS2R?

Many Thanx

JM only ab problem over 3 GB RAM (pamic).
You can set maxmem=3072 at boottime (kernel flag) to avoid panic, but only have 3 GB.
I dont know if set to 3072 works on all Mainboards, some say it must set below 3000 ?! (2024 - 2500).

We have to wait for newer one.
Also JMicron itself has drivers for OS X(i think we all have our .kext from them over Apple )
I will check their ftp site of them every week in hope an newer drivers arives.

I mailed to JM (using their contact info) of the kernel panic problem with RAM > 3 GB running OS X Leo.
perhaps they work "faster" if more of us mail them our problems ?
