In my case, it was a fresh install, which made it quite a bit more |
| 6 |
painful to fix because I had to go through the procedures twice and |
| 7 |
did not have a working kernel to fall back on. It's the scenario I've |
| 8 |
always dreaded, and then one day it actually happens. When I re-did |
| 9 |
the install, I erased the partition table and started anew, so there |
| 10 |
was no old cruft to begin with. |

I'm not sure if this contributed to anything, but I enabled all the |
| 13 |
relevant RAID support the second time around. Since I only have one |
| 14 |
SATA drive, I simply turned off RAID support initially in the kernel, |
| 15 |
but it's possible that this particular combination of hardware was |
| 16 |
expecting a RAID driver... |

I'm so clueless sometimes trying to figure out some of these kernel |
| 19 |
options... haha. The really technical ones where it's like a foreign |
| 20 |
language. I love the "if unsure, say N here." or "if you don't know |
| 21 |
what this is, you probably don't need it - say N here." ;-) |
