the drive is ata and it shows up with both the new and ubuntu patched
kernel, it even detects the partition as ext3 ( it is correct ) but it
does not mount it.... ( in the newer kernels downloaded downloaded and
built from kernel.org )
Its bloody wierd... i never had the problem in debian... still dont..
just in all my ubuntu's... it affects different drives.. i dont know if
it has something to do with the "active-ness" of the partition ( i doubt
it ) but it must be something... why doesnt that drive come up and my
other does just fine.
im not sure.. might be a version conflict between kernel and gnu's mount
or something .

Does the drive now show up Serial-ATA (a SCSI device).
i guess its a kernel patch thing.
Yes, as the behaviour differs under two version of the linux-kernel and
Ubuntu you know it's something related to the kernel and not to the
distribution used.
