    I have an excessively new system for which 2.6.12 kernel in the Debian
    etch beta 1 installer doesn't detect the hard drive.
    Intel D945PSNLK Motherboard
    WD25000JS-OOM, which Western Digital's site says is a 2nd generation
    SATA.
    Pentium 4 630 processor.

    Intel provides drivers for this motherboard, but they only seem to
    concern the on-board audio and LAN. I'm not sure if the problem is
    the m/b or the disk, or the combination. Win2K managed to see the
    drive, so the hardware is OK.

    dmesg shows IHC7:
    ICH7: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:1f.1
    ICH7: chipset revision 1
    ICH7: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
      ide0: BM-DMA at 0x30b0-0x30b7, BIOST settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio
    Unfortunately, the thing at IDE0 is the DVD.

    manually loading the ahci driver doesn't work. An earlier thread with
    a somewhat similar problem advised doing this to see what the messages
    were, but nothing useful showed up (modprove -v ahci).

    The installer doesn't seem to have lspci.

    I've tried ATA/IDE mode as enhanced and legacy in the BIOS; neither
    works.

    Any suggestions?

    I would appreciate if you cc'd me.
    Thanks.
