My network based install failed on my T43 when it couldn't find the hard disk; adding that boot parameter made it fall back to the ata_piix module which let the disk be recognized. -- 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.

The ahci module is not working properly with the SATA controller in the T43, as none of the devices attached to it are recognized. However, the ata_piix module works with this chipset. Here's the lspci -vv output for the controller on my T43: 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) SATA Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 80 [Master]) Subsystem: IBM Unknown device 056a Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 0 Region 0: I/O ports at 01f0 [size=8] Region 1: I/O ports at 03f4 [size=1] Region 2: I/O ports at 0170 [size=8] Region 3: I/O ports at 0374 [size=1] Region 4: I/O ports at 18c0 [size=16] Capabilities: [70] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot+,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Tejun: can we either fix support for this chipset or blacklist it so it uses the ata_piix module by default? I'm assuming you're the right contact for this since you added the libata support to our kernel.

Steve, please boot the kernel without the brokenmodules parameter. After the failure, switch to command console (f9). Connect and mount a usb disk to /mnt. 'lsscsi' comes handy when trying to determine which device node to use. If disk detection has failed, usb disk would probably be /dev/sda1. After mounting, please do.. # hwinfo --all > /mnt/hwinfo.log # cp /var/log/boot.msg /mnt # dmesg > /mnt/dmesg.log And post the files here.
