You shouldn't need atapi_enabled=1 anymore, and combined_mode only applies if you're using an Intel controller with that combined/legacy/AHCI selection braindamage. Did you select the right driver options in the kernel configuration? You'll either have to compile the driver(s) into the kernel or potentially do some distro-specific magic to ensure the modules get loaded in the initrd. -- Robert Hancock Saskatoon, SK, Canada To email, remove "nospam" from hancockr@...pamshaw.ca Home Page: http://www.roberthancock.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
