Linux OS.because the SATA HDD driver not avaliable.
I have tried the below OS.
RHEL 4.0 UP3
Fedora core 5
Ubantu linux also.
still issue not solved
There are some patches available to get most distros to boot or load, but to get fully functionality out of the 965 chipsets, you need a later kernel version. 2.6.18 and 2.6.19 are supposed to provide the support you need. For Ubuntu, that means another 5 months unless you build your own.
i am new in ubuntu linux.
please provide exact patch link details and how to install/use this patch during os installation.
How i inbuit this patch with ubuntu-6_1.10-desktop-i386 Version OS.
please help.
I'm not sure if this is applicable to Ubuntu or not, but for FC6 you make the BIOS change as above, and boot with "linux install all-generic-ide" you'll get a working system.
