Question Censornet installation problem - SATA


Hi!

I've just downloaded Censornet and I'm having trouble getting the installation started - it does not recognize any IDE drives because the drive in there is SATA.

There is no option for IDE legacy support on the SATA options in the BIOS.

There is an advanced option to specify partitions etc, into which I enter the device as sda, first partition as sda1. This does not work - Fatal error setup could not initialize the partition table.
If I do a df -lh on that same system it returns the hard drive as /dev/sda1 so it is there.

I've also tried these options at boot: linux ide=nodma
But that just returns Could not find kernel image: linux

What am I doing wrong? Could anyone provide some insight please!

Vincent
