Hallo,

I have a recently installed Debian with Linux 2.4.18-bf2.4. My goal is
a home file server with software raid 1 for data, leaving the os on
disk hda.

Linux is installed on a 2Gb disk in
hda1 /boot
hda2 swap
hda3 /

There is also:
hdc cd-rom
hdd not used (just added for a second swap file)

I additionally installed two 40 GB disks on the onboard ide controller
for software raid 1 but now I want to move them to their own
cntroller. I have not yet moved any data to the 40 Gb disks.

Now I have installed a ide crontroller (with raid that I do not use)
so that I can have two 40 GB hard disks each on its own individual
bus. At boot time I see the ide card and have put hard disk 0
(primary bus master disk) in set 1 and hard disk 2 (secondary bus
master disk) in set 2.

In Linux I cannot find the hard disks. I tried to run cfdisk for
/dev/hde
/dev/hdf
/dev/hdg
/dev/hdh

dmesg (see below) seems to show that the new hard disks are not
visible ot Linux

What do I need to do be able to access the hard disks?

Note: I have previously tried two other ide controllers (CMD 649 and
Promise Fast Trak 100, neither of which, I discovered, are supported
by Linux).

Greetings,
