update on previous comment: now trying to mount this disk (still using the SPiF223A bridge) freezes the system. Needs a hard reset! (Tried W-XP again and all works fine.) Disk utilities still shows the hdd as /dev/sdb1 with name, serial nr, capacity... but trying to mount this disk freezes the system. The same disk (Seagate SATA) works fine over a usb-bridge as external disk. The problem has to be the use of the PATA- SATA bridge SPiF223A (SUNPLUS IT, SATALINK, SPIF223A-HL022). This bridge is built in a 2nd HDD-caddy which comes in place of the DVD-drive.
