Hi all, i'm new here and english is not my native language. I hope to find some help about an unsolved issue concerning the impossible installation of Debian on SATA hard disk. I'm trying to install linux Debian 4,0 (Etch Stable distrib) on my new hard disk SATA and more precisely on a partition of 200Gio.
Here some details of my HDD: -Manufacturer: Western Digital Type: Barracuda -HDD SATA -capacity: 500Gio -Partions: 4 (Debian, Mandriva, Swap, Data) The Debian installation is impossible from a bootable DVD, network (Netinst), live cd...I've re-downloaded an iso image from the official ftp web site and same result. During installation, language can be choosen, network interface is recognized and configured but IS STOPPED at hard disk detection and partitionning step. Indeed, my SATA hard disk is not detected/recognized and consequently installation fails. Installer propose a list of "driver" to select but no one is working in my case. I've contacted Western Digital but they cannot solve my problem. PS: With tis HDD SATA, installation was successfull with Mandriva2008, Ubuntu 8,0. But NOT DEBIAN???? Please, could you help me to fix this issue? Sincerly, K -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
