Hi list,
I have a new SATA drive (WDC WD800JD-60LUA0) that I have problems with
getting recognized by Sarge.
I have this 80 GByte drive too and the WDC WD360GD (Raptor)
If Knoppix has absolutely no problems, I believe my problems are all
software related. Knoppix finds it as /dev/sda. I created ext2
partitions 1-7, no problems. I was unable to run lilo from Knoppix: got
errors that he could not find the right device mapper.
I get the same error with the Sarge Netinstall-CD.
Then I have tried the new Daily Netinstall-CD's (now 11 different)
with the same errors.
I get tonns of messages that it can not find the partitions...
Then I was using the OLD Woody-Installer using Linux 2.4.27
without modules (all compiled in) and Oh luck... it works!
I think, there is a problem with "udev".
Note: I have installed Sarge, Etch and Sid with the same installer
(each on a seperated partition) because I want to have chroots
and LILO failed. Then I have used the first Woody-CD 3.0r0
and booted, <ALT>F2 to a console and was running
lilo -r /target/chroot-sarge
lilo -r /target/chroot-etch
lilo -r /target/chroot-sid
and lilo has written lilo and the partitions went bootable
from /dev/sda1 which is the master system running automaticaly
the chroots on my Devel-Station.
