dear global

i am having a pc with following configuration
processor : AMD 64 3200+ (939 socket)
motherboard : msi 7093 RS 480 series(939 socket)
hard disk: SATA Si 3112A (80 gb)
ram : 512 Mb
cd r: gigabite
dvd rom: Samsung
i m using winxp(32 bit) with this it is working fine I want to load RedHat Linux Enterprise 3 but it is not detecting my hard disk please guide me for this and where to find the driver if it is required

In the installer using a 2.4 kernel or a 2.6 kernel?

If it's 2.4, you need the module siimage.o - this is the low-level hardware driver for the SiI3112A, which presents it as an IDE device. You then need stuff like ide-detect.o and ide-disk.o to find your drive. If the installer has an expert mode, you can insert siimage.o at the correct point in the proceedings.

If it's 2.6 you need two modules: libata.o and sata_sil.o - these present the SiI3112A as a *SCSI* device, so you'll need stuff like sd-mod.o to find the drive.

Best of luck,
