I have been using
windows for two reasons, one is that I had problems with mandrake 9.0 and went The problem arose i that when I went to re-install the drives were shown as hac,hdd and hde; no hda
hdc as I used to have with cd drives on b and d. looked as if they are now hda and hdb ??
This is real wierd and I do not seem to be able to change the to what they should be., was thinkingbof taking the
raid out of circuit for the install but!
Is this hardware or software RAID? If its hardware, what kind of controller is it? Perhaps a BIOS problem?
Its a promise chip in an Asus A7V333.So did you change anything in its BIOS?
It boots and allocates primary master with C and D partitions. Then it allocated the raid drive as G. Then the two
dvd drives, ones a burner as E & F.
Linux will not boot at all in this state but will when I disable raid on the MB.
It comes up with the following drive configuration when raid is enabled:
hdd = raid drive
hde = primary master
hdf = Samsung dvd reader
hdg = Secondary master
hdh = Dvd Burner
hda, hdc do not appear at all !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now it cannot be bios otherwise windows would exhibit the same problem but it does not, so what is there that causes
linux to differ ???
