It's a cable detection problem. You're using 40c cable, right? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I'll backport them and issue driver update disk. Please stand by.

Specifying libata.force_cbl=40 should work around your problem. Will prep driver update disk and announce on the opensuse page. Please stand by.

It's called kISO for kernel ISO and basically a mini-ISO with updated kernel and kernel package for it. The following URL contains kISOs for i386 and x86_64 built with KOTD (kernel-of-the-day). http://htj.dyndns.org/export/kiso/ Documentation on how to use kISO is at http://htj.dyndns.org/export/kiso/SL103-kISO-doc.txt This is still in the works. These ISOs can be built by invoking single command and I'm trying to make this thing automated such that kISOs for kernel updates and KOTD are generated automatically so that this kind of bugs can be dealt with much quicker in the future. The documentation also describes how to use libata.force parameter to force configuration. In your case the following parameter on installation boot prompt will do the job. options=libata=force=2:40c Please report whether the kISOs do the job.
