Re: problems installing etch: no HD detected



The installed HD is a Western Diginal Scorpio HD (WD800BEVS), using the
SATA port 1. I wonder if I need any special module to be loaded during
the installation...
Hi
Maybe, might be a controller problem. So, debian don't see any hard disk.
Try switch to shell and do dmesg command.

Or try daily netinstall snapshot.

U might try with ubuntu live 6.10 (it doesn't install anything on hard disk)
and check if ubuntu's kernel check your controller (and disk).

So, u could understand what's the problem.

Best r.
