New computer



Hi all
I just put a new computer together and would like to know your input
about the following problems i experience. My new system has these
components.:

Motherboard - Intel DP965LT
CPU - Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
HD - Seagate IDE 200 GB
HD - Seagate SATA 250 GB
DVD-rw NEC IDE

Now i tried to install the new Debian Etch on it but already pretty
fast during the install process i got stuck, because the installer
could not find the CDROM drive. After i when i would have installed
Etch i would like to have upgraded to Sid.

So now i installed Ubuntu Feisty Fawn. And this did find my CDROM
drive, but it sees my IDE HD as /dev/sda ... also not what it should
be.

My questions are: How can i install Debian Etch and upgrade to Sid on
this hardware? Or are there modern Sid-netinstall-i386 iso images,
which would not have the "cdrom not found" errors? Will debian then
also see the /dev/hda as /dev/sda ?

Thanks
