Ok, my system is like this:

Primary ATA controller
120GB HD (drive G: in windows)
Toshibe CD-ROM drive (E:)

Secondary ATA Controller
SONY DVD-RW Drive (F:)
<empty>

3rd SATA Controller
120GB SATA HD (C: NTFS)

4th SATA Controller
120GB SATA HD (D: NTFS)


Bios is setup to boot from Floppy, CD-ROM, 3rd SATA Controller HD.

Bios has enhanced SATA control enabled.

Windows XP Pro boots/works fine.

Linux install/boot has major problems with IRQ 11 and doesn't see any hard drives.

I have been able to get the Knoppix environmnet to load, but it doesn't see any hard drives either.

What am I doing wrong to get the Linux to install??

What distro are you trying to install?


And are you sure knoppix is not seeing them, sata will be attached to the harddrive as /dev/sda instead of IDE /dev/hda
