im trying to install ubuntu 9.04/9.10 server edition to an old x306m
that has adaptec 9405w… and two sata 160gb HDD… since i don’t need RAID
for these two… what i need is to just install an Ubuntu OS to the first
HDD and use the 2nd HDD as data storage… taking note that i have both
plugged in to adaptec 9405w…

i disabled the raid in bios, and when ubuntu prompted to Activate Serial
ATA Raid devices:

when i said yes: i always end up in a ‘No root file system is defined’
when i said no: i used a guided partitioning and used the whole 160gb with 
LVM.. ubuntu detects a scsi3 (0,0,0) (sda) and installs the system…

but upon rebooting after installation:

Boot from (hd0,4) ext2
Starting up …
Loading, please wait…
no block devices found
no block devices found
no block devices found
no block devices found

Gave up waiting for root device… etc…

thanks for the help in advance…
