I had the same problem with diskdrake today. I commented out the following
lines in '/usr/lib/libDrakX/any.pm' and it works (94-99):
#$automatic = 0 if arch() =~ /ppc/; #- no auto for PPC yet
#if (grep { $_->{device} =~ /^sd/ } @$hds) && (grep { $_->{device} =~
/^hd/ } @$hds) {
# $automatic = $semi_auto = 0;
#- full expert questions when there is 2 kind of disks
#- it would need a semi_auto asking on which drive the bios boots...
# }
Since I have IDE on an AMD, it shouldn't cause a problem.
