Intel D945PSNLK Motherboard WD25000JS-OOM, which Western Digital's site says is a 2nd generation SATA. Pentium 4 630 processor. Intel provides drivers for this motherboard, but they only seem to concern the on-board audio and LAN. I'm not sure if the problem is the m/b or the disk, or the combination. Win2K managed to see the drive, so the hardware is OK. dmesg shows IHC7: ICH7: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:1f.1 ICH7: chipset revision 1 ICH7: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later ide0: BM-DMA at 0x30b0-0x30b7, BIOST settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio Unfortunately, the thing at IDE0 is the DVD. manually loading the ahci driver doesn't work. An earlier thread with a somewhat similar problem advised doing this to see what the messages were, but nothing useful showed up (modprove -v ahci). The installer doesn't seem to have lspci. I've tried ATA/IDE mode as enhanced and legacy in the BIOS; neither works. Any suggestions? I would appreciate if you cc'd me. Thanks.
