I have a situation where I have a NIC who's driver will only compile under
2.4 kernel, so I install RH9, install the drivers and can't access my SATA
HDD. All is well with the world as this is as expected. I then do an
upgrade to Fedora Core 2, which with a 2.6 Kernel has SATA support. I can
now see my SATA controler my NIC is still working... all is well with the
world still.... however the SATA HDD does not show up on the disk mounter
tool, but I can see it.. kinda...:
SCSI subsystem initialized
libata version 1.02 loaded.
ata_piix version 1.02
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.2 to 64

Vendor: ATA Model: Maxtor 6Y200M0 Rev: 1.02

SCSI device sda: 398297088 512-byte hdwr sectors (203928 MB)
SCSI device sda: drive cache: write through
sda: sda1
Attached scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
ata1: thread exiting
as you can see the sda is there and it has 1 partition, sda1, however if I
try to mount it manualy I get the following:
"mount: /dev/sda1 is not a valid block device"
Can anyone help me with this? I am going out of my mind! If I install
Fedora Core 2 from scratch I can see my HDD but can't install the NIC.....
AARRGGHH....
