SATA II harddrive not detected Slackware 12
 
Hej all,

I have a problem to install Slackware 12 (from DVD), it doesn't detect my SATA II hard drive. Same problem with Slackware 11 and Ubuntu 7.04 (windows xp has no problem finding hard drive)

S775 Asrock MB with VIA VT8237S South Bridge
500g Western Digital hd (also tried with Maxtor 200g)
Tried jumpering my HD to SATA I, but same problem.

fdisk -l has no output

Maybe the VT8237 isn't supported in the standard Slackware 12 kernel??
(maybe useless to say but via vmware in Windows xp slackware detects my HD)
Can someone help me?

Thanks

Hi,

Which kernel are you using, the default for the installer?

Code:

excerpt for the 2.6.21.5-smp;

cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep -i VIA
# CONFIG_MVIAC3_2 is not set
CONFIG_VIA_FIR=m
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=y
CONFIG_SATA_VIA=y
.
.
.

Both huge kernels have the VIA chipset support for SATA. Both of the generic kernels support the VIA.

Did you read the Slackware 12.0 CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT, UPGRADE.TXT and RELEASE_NOTES?

H_TeXMeX_H 10-24-2007 10:29 AM

Try 'cfdisk' instead.

Mr_Weirdo 10-24-2007 12:09 PM

Hey onebuck thanks for replying,

I am using the default hugesmp.s kernel when i boot from the DVD.

I found some maybe interesting lines at startup from dvd:
"Creating /dev/mapper/control character device with major:10 minor:62
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while..
No volume groups found" (is this normal?)

I see a lot of raid comments in the boot while i ain't using raid.

Hey H_TeXMeX_H also thanks for replying,
cfdisk automatically reads my dvd.
cfdisk /dev/sda or sda1 or sdb etc can't find.

I read the Slackware 12.0 CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT, UPGRADE.TXT and RELEASE_NOTES but coudn't find any solution.

Hi,

You could post the output for dmesg to let us see what is happening.

Your card is not being detected by the kernel. It maybe a new SATA card, unsupported yet.

Hej Ghostdancer,
I am the guy with the empty /lib/modules, could it be that thats the problem?
cause its not a new mobo

Is not the issue on whether your mainboard is new or old. The problem here is, the SATA controller is not detected. Either the SATA controller is too new for kernel 2.6.21 or is too obscure for kernel developer to support it.

Check:

http://linux-ata.org/driver-status.html

For supported SATA controller that supported by Linux.

It is possible, some bios setting is blocking the detection.

There ain't so much to configure in the bios.
Only sata enable disable and raid enable disable, thats it.
Crappy VIA !

I see.

Is possible to tell us what the current setup in the bios?

I think this is a bad install. '/lib/modules' should not be empty. Are you sure the kernel and kernel modules were installed properly ?

He has not installed Slackware yet, since the installer can't detect the SATA disk.
