1 Hello list! First Thank all of you very much for helped me solved so
2 many problems (e.g. prompt me for installing 2.6 kernel so that I can
3 use USB keyboard, pointing out I've linked to wrong profile and wrong
4 root directory permission etc).
5
6 After started to use 2.6 kernel I can no longer access the booting HDD
7 which was /dev/hda and connected to the on-board IDE controller.
8 sappho ~ # mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt
9 mount: /dev/hda1 is not a valid block device
10
11 It seems I don't have proper driver for on-board IDE controller:
12 sappho ~ # mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt
13 mount: /dev/hda1 is not a valid block device
14
15 I know only one method to tell what controller I have, which is lspci:
16 sappho ~ # lspci
17 [snip]
18 01:03.0 IDE interface: Silicon Image, Inc. PCI0646 (rev 03)
19 02:02.0 RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID Controller (rev 50)
20 [snip]
21
22 It's clear '/' is mounted on SATA harddisk on RAID controller, so, it
23 seems the on-board IDE controller is Silicon Image's PCI0646, however I
24 do have the driver enabled in kernel:
25 BLK_DEV_SIIMAGE=y
26
27 So this is rather strange to me, do I have to enable other kernel option
28 to be able to 'see' the booting harddisk?
