SATA VT8251 do not work on Linux. There are -very- experimental patches, but I've not tried them myself. Return the board and buy anything else that's not VIA based.
I did. Bought nForce4-based board. Got stuck with sata-II drives (lock-ups, crushes, out-of-sync, both in linux and in windows). It is a buggy chipset, has problems with nearly all sata-II drives (tried Seagate and Samsung) and nvidia does not care a sh*t... Jarry -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
