Hi, with one HD SuSE 9.1 works well up to now. After plugging the second HD in the tower, problems occurs: Both HDs are correct jumpered to master and slave, both HDs are connected to one IDE-Port, both HDs comes with 160 GB . When PC is booting, kdm is coming up, but the valid password to the users and root no longer accepted. With the help of the SuSE DVD booting was after all succesfull, but the first HD (as also the second) is no longer in DMA mode and the new second HD recognized only with 6 GB instead of 160GB. Yast tells me under HD controller, that "Micro-Star International RAID bus controller" is used and "sata_promise"-modul is loaded in initrd. I would like to use both HDs capacity (without RAID). Is this a problem with the linux HD controller or with bios settings? What can I do? Kindly Regards Uwe -- PGP 2.6.3-Key auf Anfrage, PGP-Key on request
