Something similar happened to me. I'm guessing you have a more recent Mac that needs ATA 100 support for the kernel to find your hard disk. This has to be compiled in and cannot be merely a module unless you're using an initrd.img, which you probably don't want to do. My strategy was to go through and compile in almost everything that said "ATA" in it because I wasn't sure which kernel module covered my controller/drive. This worked, but I'd welcome a more efficient solution. Brian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
