Odp: [gentoo-user] IDE is called hda

I guess he just answered. The facts speak for itself.

From the handbook:

To begin, we'll introduce block devices. The most famous block device is probably the one that represents the first drive in a Linux system, namely /dev/sda. SCSI and Serial ATA drives are both labeled /dev/sd*; even IDE drives are labeled /dev/sd* with the new libata framework in the kernel. If you're using the old device framework, then your first IDE drive is /dev/hda.

 

But when I boot on Via Epia with my minimal installation CD 2008 I get my IDE-disk as /dev/hda

 

Is the kernel on the minimal CD old ?
