Hi,
I have much trouble to get sata working with an Intel 82801I (ICH9 Family)
interface from a Compaq dc5800. The minimal CD 2008.0 uses the ata driver
and not sata so harddisks are registered as /dev/hda. After installation, my
custom kernel does the same and I had to

I had a look in the bios, couldn't find AHCI (it's HP Compaq BIOS, not very
complete) but changed the translation mode from Automatic to LBA assisted
and now it works. Out of curiosity, I reverted the BIOS to defaults
(Automatic translation mode) and it still works. So basically I

3. AHCI, Native, SATA

It seems you have set up the SATA controller to do (sub-optimal) IDE/
PATA emulation rather than native AHCI. Try enabling AHCI in the
