Re: Linux does not run on my new motherboard :(
i'd suggest looking here
http://www.linux-ide.org/chipsets.html
compare what chipset you have to see if its compadible, if it is, i'd
suggest
trying to build a new kernel to boot with and see if that helps, if it's
not
listed then get another IDE controller ...
