Installed another motherboard (Asus p4P800SE) and this works fine IF I |
| 2 |
set these options in the BIOS under IDE config: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
Onboard PCI IDE Operate Mode [Enhanced Mode] |
| 5 |
Enhanced Mode Support On [S-ATA] |
| 6 |
Configure S-ATA as RAID [No] |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Changing Enhanced Mode Support On [S-ATA] to Enhanced Mode Support On |
| 9 |
[P-ATA+S-ATA] would give the same errors as in my first post. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Note that with the above BIOS settings, the BIOS does not recognize my |
| 12 |
P-ATA IDE drive (strangely enough it does recognise the CDROM drive), |
| 13 |
but the gentoo install does (so not a big deal really). |
