F11 not booting

linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – HI, I installed F11 64 bit on AMD opteron cpu. I initially had troubles installing as the system would hang right after udev. So i disabled the onboard SATA controller and was successful in installing F11 x86_64. Now I did an update and re-enabled the onboard SATA controllers and now the system hangs at the step after udev. I had a few sata drives than I need access. Dsiabling the onboard SATA is not an option. I have tried with all_generic_ide, acpi=off, noapic kernel options but still not helping. Any comments/suggestions will be very helpful. I need this to work w/o disabling the SATA controller. THanks jimmy (HowTos)

Need help adding SATA drive 3 years 30 weeks ago

I have a working F-10 box with an older motherboard (pre-sata). The p-ata ports are full (4 drives), so I'm trying to add a sata controller and another drive. The sata controller plugs into the pci bus, but is not detected by the bios (very old). After booting, the OS loads the driver module(s) and detects the new controller and drive.

The system is running great in fedora 7 or 12 with 6 sata drives installed. I tried to install 2 more sata drives(total 8 drives), tested some combinations: 6 drives in sata ports and 2 in sas ports, or 2 in sata ports and 6 in sas ports... the BIOS can detect all 8 drives, but the fedora 7 and 12 just detect 6 sata drives.

Installing to a PCIE sata card 1 year 18 weeks ago

I have an ASUS P5Q deluxe from an old gaming computer that I'm converting to a server. Unfortunately, while their silly onboard fake RAID thing(drive xpert) worked fine in Windows, the drives are not being detected at all when I attempt to install openSUSE to them. I've tried disabling it and setting it to "normal" but still no luck.

I have recently purchased a new system. I have 3 problems which all seem to point to some sort of incompatibility between IDE and SATA drives. I'm probably wrong here, but in my mind I'm convinced that they are connected.

I have a Foxconn A88GMV motherboard with an AMD Phenom II X4 965 processor and 4GB memory. The SATA is 1TB and the IDEs are 500 and 300MB.

pcie sata card setup question 3 years 16 weeks ago

Hi all,

I've purchased a SATA card (2 sata, 2 esata, 1 IDE), cause unfortunately I ran out of sata ports on my motherboard. Running lspci I figured that my device was discovered by my system:

02:00.0 SATA controller: JMicron Technologies, Inc. 20360/20363 Serial ATA Controller (rev 03)

Hello all.

I recently upgraded to an SSD on my older SATA 3G motherboard.

I would like to get a SATA 6G controller PCI-E version to take full advantage of the SSD capability.

I was looking on Newegg and apparently PCI-E SATA 6G controllers don't get good reviews from customers.

I am looking at the HighPoint 620 PCI-E controller.

CD Drive causing boot problems 50 weeks 4 days ago

Your issue with the SATA disc drive is a problem with Udev. Namely that some SATA disc drives do not support 16-byte pass-through commands coming from Udev.

I have installed a sata controller (Rosewell RC-217) in a older PC. I ran the ubuntu 9.10 server version and I was able to install the OS. I was able to see the new sata hard drive I was able to format it. I could see everything about the drive but when the PC rebooted after the OS was installed it now can not see the hard drive.

[ubuntu] PCI SATA card 3 years 8 weeks ago

I have a Ubuntu server that I want to put 2 other SATA hard drives on but the board just has 2 SATA ports right now. So Looks like the only way to add a SATA port is with a PCI SATA card.

I need to buy one yet. But wanted to ask here is there a good one that works with ubuntu? Looking from what I seen they say they come with Windows drivers.
