What mobo are you using. I know that you can set the kernel to boot offboard controllers. You might also have to make some bios changes. -----Original Message----- From: pwa@chmls06.mediaone.net [mailto:pwa@chmls06.mediaone.net]On Behalf Of Paul Abrahams Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2001 2051 To: SuSE listserve Subject: Re: [SLE] Info re supported hardware Ben Rosenberg wrote:
Yep it's supported. The ATA100 controller that has my IBM Deskstar 30G which is /home is on this chipset. I have an Asus A7V which has ATA66 and ATA100 controller chipsets. It's cool. I have 3 devices on the ATA66 controllers and 2 on the Promise ATA100 controller..very sweet. :)
umm..what else do you need to know :)
Since the controller is a separate card, once I connect my hard drive to it, the motherboard no longer sees it directly. So what if anything do I need to do to configure Linux prior to installing the card so that Linux will start properly?
