Sata Drive Problem


HI To all,

I am trying to install SUSE-9.2 on ATA SATARAID on a m/c.,

MY Configrations are:

Processor: AMD Athlon-64 bit
MotherBoard: ASUS K8S-MX
Harddisk: Hitachi Deskstar-SCSI- 80GB
RAM - 512 MB

Actually i have installed XP Professional on the same m/c , as XP SATA drivers are in Floppy given by hardware Vendor but SUSE drivers are not provided by that vendor......


When i tried to install SUSE-9.2 on that m/c

It gives me the following error

No hard disk Found on your machine...................

I have searched Internet a lot but not able to find the solution...
So I think its a driver pb ..as HD is SATARAID......??
Where to find the driver of that..................................

PLZZ HELP ME >> I will be very grateful to all of u..........

Me in trouble...

Gaurav

If support is not in the 9.2 linux kernel, there's not much you can do as far as installation goes. If you had a regular ide hard drive you could install on that and hack around with drivers/kernel updates, etc then transfer over to the sata but that's not easy.
Give suse 9.3 a try; I believe they have a demo live cd so you can see if your sataraid is properly detected.
