What kernel are you using? I also have a asus k8n board with nvidia/sata. I have never had a problem with it. At the moment I am running sarge (stable) with the 2.6.8-2-k7 kernel, but I also have the amd64 sarge installed with a 2.6.8-?-k8 kernel and both work fine. When I booted the install cd I used the "linux26" boot option. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
