Hi

I have tried to install Fedore 7 and Fedora 8 on my new PC both are
failing to install since I don't know what driver to use ofr the disks.
The motherboard I'm using is a ASUS MsA-VM. The problem is that it
doesn't say what driver to use on in the manual for the mother board.
There are drivers shipped with the mother board but only for PC and for
Linux only for the Ethernet card and CPU support. The CPU is an AMD 64
X2 (Duo) at 4400+. 1024 MB Ram, one Seagate IDE and two SATA drives.

Can some one help me please, I don't know what to do

I don't think drivers are your problem. Most all the basic drivers are
part of the Linux distro. Rarely are the drivers included by the
motherboard manufacturer needed. I think it's the mix of the IDE and
SATA drives. At what point is the install failing? Be specific.
