Yes and no. I was able to mount the disk with a 2.4.27 knoppix-kernel. I also tried a sarge net-inst with a 2.4.27 kernel, but it failed for the same reason. The same installation was succesfull, when I used the 2.6.8 kernel. > Or he can switch his sata controller to a "legacy ATA mode". Not > Sure if it works as I have not any s-ata drives at all.

Is it planned to build an image with 2.6 kernel? I don't worry about partitioning the disk myself, but I don't have a clue how to build the image. Georg
