Following is my configuration:

Intel D865PERL Motherboard
P4 2.8 Ghz Hyperthreading
2 512MB 400Mhz Dual Channel RAM
2 SATA Barracuda Drives 80 GB each

I have the drives plugged in to the onboard SATA controller.

Following is my issue:

I boot up the live cd and provide one of the following options:
smp-acpi, smp

Command prompt comes up.

the drives appear as /dev/hde and /dev/hdg (kinda weird, but...okay)

I run fdisk and configure  all of my partitions.

When I attempt to write the partitions to the disk I get several error
messages saying the drive is not ready.

Any insight? Anybody successfully run a similar configuration?

Thanks,
Brandon
