Hi Emeric, I tried to use debian(31rda)-i386, fedora core 4 (AMD64) and ubuntu-5.05-AMD64, but none of them could recognize the HDs in the installation. I need the correct driver (Marvell (Adaptec) 4-port / 8-port SATA Driver (Hercules-II)) to make it work. Is there a specific driver in debian distribution that I can use in the installation? Where I can find it? How to install it?
