** Summary changed:
- S-ATA2 HDD not recongnized on kernel 2.6.24-11 (Samsung T166 Spinpoint)/
Nvidia Sata Controller not working
+ S-ATA2 HDD not recongnized (Samsung T166 Spinpoint)/ Nvidia Sata Controller
(nforce 780a) not working
** Description changed:
1.) Ubuntu Hardy Heron, updated 7th of Feb. 2008
Installation from CD not possible (Desktop-, Alternate-i386 CDs)
2.) HDD: Samsung T166 Spinpoint 320GB, S-ATA2
- Motherboard: Asus M3N78-EMH HDMI (with Geforce 8200 GPU onboard)
+ Motherboard: Asus M3N78-EMH HDMI (with Geforce 8200 GPU onboard,
nforce 780a Sata Controller)
CPU: AMD 64 X2 BE-2400
RAM: 4 GB DDR2-800 Mhz A-DATA
3.) The HDD is not recognized while installing Hardy from CD:
* partition window is empty, can't make any changes (Desktop CD)
* driver-list is prompting, you have to choose, which one could fit
(Alternate CD)
4.) Problematic recognition with gutsy, too. After formating the hdd gutsy
recognizes the hdd.
(...hardy not)
My HDDs partitions now:
1.NTFS 30GB
2.NTFS 50GB
3.ext3 25GB ← primary, root
4.ext3 ~210GB ← logical, \home
----------------------------
Booting:
If I choose the standard Hardy Heron Mode (kernel 2.6.24-11), it hangs
up at the following point:
[ 4.276000] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
[ 4.288000] ata1.00: qc timeout (cmd0xec)
[ ... ] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)
[ ... ] ata1.00: failed to recover some devices
..
...
....
sr 6:0:1:0 Attached scsi generic sg1 type5
Done.
Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline
or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls/dev
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-unid/9ae09019-d95f-4cd3-bd46-16c7bfddf2dd does not exist
Dropping to a shell!
Debian BusyBox...
--------------
under hardy/gutsy with kernel 2.6.22-14 :
[ 4.276000] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
[ 4.288000] ata1.00: ATA-8: SAMSUNG HD321KJ, CP100-12, max UDMA7
----------------------------
- After reading about S-ATA a little bit. Maybe it could be a problem of the
S-ATA Controller on the Mainboard, which should be from Nvidia in my case.

(nforce 780a)
I tried a Debian Installation and it, of course, didn't work, too. In the
large list of possible drivers I choosed "Sata_nv" but, like I said, it didn't
work.
So maybe I'm just too much of an idiot choosing the right sata-controller
driver. Or.. the "driver modul" isn't implemented into the kernel, yet?!
---------------------------
A Samsung SH S203P Sata DVD Burner isn't working, too.. If this is of
interest.
[4.........] ata2: softreset failed etc.
