Ant: detecting SATA2



Thank you very much! I couldn't wish for better
replies! 

I now connected my SATA2 disc to a SATA connector
although the mobo handbook advises against it. When i
start the installation with a cd made from
sarge-amd64-2.6.12-netinst.iso available at
http://tinyplanet.ca/~lsorense/amd64/, i modprobe
sata_uli and the installer detects my disc :). But
when i try to format it, at one stage or the other i
get at least:
"Kernel panic - not syncing: PCI-DMA: high addres but
no IOMMU"
"Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt
handler!"
the furthest i got so far was past the formatting -
installing the base system - but then one of the
errors above occured.
Knoppix detects the disc and i can mount it - but
lsmod did not show sata_uli *puzzled*.
So what do you guys recommend? Should i use a IDE HD
instead? Is it likley that this is a silly mistake or
some serious incompatibility where even if i manage to
install debian ugly errors are going to crop up later?

cordially,
- Peter
