debian on sata HDD
 
Hi All,

Can we install Debian etch on SATA HDD ? I have Intel D945GCNL Mother Board with Seagate 80 GB HDD, but failed to install Etch. Any way out ?

I have installed Etch on many PCs using SATA drives, including this one:

(Though the current release is "Lenny/Sid", the initial install was Etch.) However, I have seen enough problems reported that I think they may be problems with certain configurations (hardware array?). Check your BIOS settings for alternative SATA recognition options.

The same here, i installed Debian Etch on my Intel 945GZ motherboard. It should be no problem at all.
