I think that partman is not really failing. Your problem falls in the general problems we have with that bloody SATA things for which the support in the kernel and discover is jerky. Do you have an idea of the modules combination that would work with Linux (either flavour) with you hardware. Have you tried some live CD's such as Knoppix or Ubuntu ones and chaecked that one of these succeeds in finding a hard drive in your machine ? Blame SATA, blame it, dammit.... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
