Re: [gentoo-user] sata drive on abit fatal1ty an8-sli

Well it looks like either Linux or Gentoo's live cd don't support the
3gb/sec SATA yet. It does load the sata_nv driver, but it doesn't seem to do
anything with it since it's an older version. I guess I'll have to wait
until I have a monitor and can run Partition Magic or something (though I do
plan on totally reformatting once I can actually use the system).
