As some of you know, I've been running Windows exclusively since school got
out in Apr. I've been waiting to get an additional hard drive to install
Red Hat on. Anyway, the point of all this is that I got a hold of a 6GB
harddrive and a removable module to put it in. When I hot swap it in windows
the drive works perfectly, I've formatted it and written to it. When I try
to boot the Red Hat install discs, or just reboot, I get a warning screen
that says the device in the module bay is unrecognizable and that I should
make sure it's firmly pressed into the bay and reboot, which I've done
several times. Anyone have this problem before or have any ideas on what I
should do? I'd hate to have to stay with Windows because I couldn't install
on my new hard drive.
It's an Inspiron 8200 by the way, putting a 6 GB Toshiba drive in the module
bay.
Thanks,
Ryan
