My last message seems to have gone wrong so i'll try again. I'm sorry 
for that.
What i said is that i saw that there where people that had to use
sata_nv to get a sata drive working.  From what i can see, it seems that
on boot your sata drive is not 
accessible.
I would try once with lsmod to see if there are sata related modules
loaded after your system starts. Since it all works after the initial
boot, i guess the way the system is 
set up,
it can't acces the drive and your sata is ok.
If this is the case, you'll have to find a kernel that support sata 
(built in) or
build your own kernel with sata support of make an initrd with sata in
and adjust grubs menu.lst to load the initrd.

Benedict



Hi Benedict,

Thank you very much for your help. Now with added "ata_piix" and "piix"
lines in /etc/modules it works fine.

Best Regards,
Jura
