How does one configure Hard drive with Linux Mandrake?


The Linux (Mandrake) install program loaded correctly, but it's struggling to recognize my hard drive:



It's a Seagate ST380013AS.

The install program is asking for:

base_address (a number)
controller_type ( a number)
irq (number)

Where do I find such specs for a hard drive so that I enter exactly what it needs to know to run and install Mandrake?

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.
