Hi Folks, I'm using the latest debian-testing-amd64-businesscard installer on an Asus P5K motherboard with an ICH9 Southbridge and Marvell 88SE61xx SATA / PATA chipset. I'm using an HP dvd1040i CDrom drive for installation.
The installer boots fine but cannot find any cdrom device to use. When I look at dmesg, I get the following output relating to the ide devices: Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00alpha2 ide: Assuming 33MHZ system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx pnp: the driver 'ide' has been registered ata_piix: 0000:00:1f.2: version 2.10ac1 ata_piix: 0000:00:1f.2: MAP [ P0 P2 P1 P3 ] ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x00000000000101f0 ctl 0x00000000000103f6 bmdma 0x000000000001ff90 irq 14 ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x00000000000101f0 ctl 0x0000000000010376 bmdma 0x000000000001ff98 irq 15 scsi0: ata_piix ata1.00: ATA-7: ST3500630AS, 3.AAK, max UDMA/133 ata1.00: 976773168 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 scsi1: ata_piix ata2.00: ATA-7: ST3500630AS, 3.AAK, max UDMA/133 ata2.00: 976773168 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32) ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 scsi: 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA ST3500630AS 3.AA PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 scsi: 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA ST3500630AS 3.AA PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 ata_piix 0000:00:1f.5: MAP [ P0 P2 P1 P3 ] ata3: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x000000000001a000 ctl 0x0000000000019c02 bmdma 0x0000000000019480 irq 22 ata4: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x0000000000019880 ctl 0x0000000000019802 bmdma 0x0000000000019488 irq 22 scsi2: ata_piix ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x000000000001a007 scsi3: ata_piix ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x0000000000019887 SCSI device sda: 976773168 512-byte hdwr sectors (500108 MB) sda: Write protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA SCSI device sda: 976773168 512-byte hdwr sectors (500108 MB) sda: Write protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sda: unknown partition table sd: 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sda SCSI device sdb: 976773168 512-byte hdwr sectors (500108 MB) sdb: Write protect is off sdb: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sdb: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA SCSI device sdb: 976773168 512-byte hdwr sectors (500108 MB) sdb: Write protect is off sdb: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sdb: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sdb: unknown partition table sd: 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sdb ide0: I/O resource 0x3F6-0x3F6 not free. ide0: ports already in use, skipping probe ide1: I/O resource 0x376-0x376 not free. ide1: ports already in use, skipping probe an lspci yields the following IDE devices: 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation Unknown device 2920 (rev 02) (prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

I've verified that the Marvell IDE/eSATA controller is enabled in the BIOS as well (hence the initial booting of the installer CD). I'm hoping someone on the list can point me in the right direction; if this isn't the appropriate list then please accept my apologies for the noise. Thanks in advance, -Mike. ================================================================== Mike Messick Dona nobis pacem rm -rf /bin/laden PGP Key Fingerprint: email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2048/0x57318496 053B 412B 82FC 3808 E141 CDCD 74AE 01C5 5731 8496 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
