I have an ASUS A7V motherboard with a pair of ATA66 IDE controllers and also a Promise ATA100 (20265) pair of ATA100 controllers.
I have an ATA100 disk which has been running on the ATA66 controller as hdb. I moved it onto the ATA100 controller as an experiment; linux spotted it as hde, but didn't think there were any partitions on it. Actually it contains two extended partitions, a fat32 partition and an ext2fs partition. I didn't try booting Windows (2000) to see if it saw its partition. Anyone seen this problem? Is it to do with geometry translation? If so presumably there's a command line parameter for the kernel which will fix it up. Will Windows also see the disk? thanks Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
