RE: Adding SATA driver to kernel during OS installation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The BIOS does recognize the disk when booting up. The system BIOS has the
following listed for the drive controllers:
                             
                    PATA:          Both (enabled)
                    SATA           Enabled
                    SATA RAID   Disabled
 
PATA is enabled to allow CD-ROM drive functionality. SATA is enabled for the
hard drive in question, while the SATA RAID is disabled because there is only
one drive in the system.
 
During the installation GRUB was installed to the MBR.

That looks like a BIOS error meaning it can't find a bootloader on your
hard disk, rather than a linux driver issue, which would only present
itself sometime after the kernel had started running. Does your BIOS
recognise your disk(s) and did you install grub in the MBR?
