[expert] Can't install into Intel D865GLC MB with SATA drives
Please let me know when you do build the disk (and drivers) for this. My machine is basically unusable until this happens. I don't understand how M$ can work and install without special drivers! Bob Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I'll post on the lists when they are out... machine is basically unusable until this happens. I don't understand how M$ can work and install without special drivers! Bob Since just about every manufacturer makes their own drivers for M$, or releases their specs / documentations to M$... On the linux development side, most drivers get done when some people start needing them, and then it happens by reading whatever info you can, and start trying to build by trial and error ... -- Regards Thomas Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Bob [EMAIL PROTECTED] kirjoitti viestissään (lähetysaika Keskiviikko 15 Lokakuu 2003 00:38): Hello, I'm trying to load Mandrake on a brand new P4 2.8ghz system using the Intel D845GVAD2, with two 10K ROM SATA drives. I have an IDE CDROM drive attached. What SATA controller? That board does not have any integrated, so... Oops, I read the wrong MB number. It's the Intel 865GLC, sorry. Mdk 9.0 would not find the CD Drive - died right away. Mdk 9.1 would load some more from the CD, but then would fail looking for the hard disk. It wants to know what SCSI module to use. I tried a whole bunch, all to no avail. Help! I want to install (preferrably 9.0) on this lightning-fast machine! Thanks. Bob Sorry, no can do the SATA support for most chipsets boards has just gotten to the process where they get integrated in the current kernels, so the first MDK distro to support other SATA than Sil3112 are MDK 9.2 + driver disk.. Where can I find this driver? Bob Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

But I need to get the newer libata integrated in my kernels first... And I know that one of the OEM partners has demanded the SATA support for atleast Intel Boards... But you will atleast have to wait a week, before I can get around to building those driver disks... -- Regards Thomas Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
