Hai,
I am using gentoo 2.6.15 kernel and grub 0.96.
I am using software RAID1 for 3 devices (2 IDE(hda,hdb)+1
SATA(sda)).
I am not able to boot through the SATA hardisk(ie. Just the
plain cursor comes). When the grub loader loads initially, if I
type the the command
grub>find /boot/grub/stage1
hd(0,0)
hd(1,0)
and it hangs, it is not detecting the SATA drive and not even
coming out from the prompt.
After the machine booted in the normal mode using IDE
drive, I logged in as root and I tried
grub>find /boot/grub/stage1
hd(0,0)
hd(1,0)
hd(4,0)
Now the grub is recognizing the SATA drive.
Can somebody give me a suggestion why the SATA is not
recognized while booting in the grub?
is your sata support compiled in as modules or into the kernel?
Thanks & Regards,
Muthu.
