Hello Michael.
Sounds similar to my issue with 10.1 - drive unrecognised. Same with 10.2 IIRC
ASUS P5K motherboard has onboard Jmicron chip. I could not get 10.1 to install. As it happened Ubuntu (7.0.4??) installed fine and I was content for a while.
How exatly does one figure that out? If it has the Jmicron thing?
If you are using JMicron chipset it will has a seperated sata controller beside the buildin motherboard one. Also you can look for the jmicron chip on the motherboard.
When 10.3 openSuSE came out I tried again. Bingo - success.
Will be trying that soon.
In my case it gets more interesting... I have four SATA drives, one system drive at 80 gig and three data drives in software RAID5 at 320 gig each.
The only way I could get things to work - tried a lot of BIOS settings, too! - was to set the system drive to be on SATA port 4 (/dev/sdd) and then the magic happened.
Hmm. I can't quite figure out the whole master-slave port thing here. I can only see what happens in the BIOS reporting as I move the connections around on the motherboard. Putting both HD's into what appeared to be "slave" ports got the BIOS to say "hey, I can't find a master HD", not surprisingly. Also not surprisingly, SuSE didn't find them either.
Oh, FWIW, acpi=off made the DVD detection fail..
Thanks.
