The 5.3 miniinst and disc1 work as expected. 5.4 does not have an miniinst.iso so used disc1. When 5.4 disc1 install cdrom is used, sysinstall(standerd) option gives error msg (No hard disk found). Then using the 5.3 disc1 cdrom install proceeds as expected. I can also run ms/dos fdisk & format on the HD without any problems. The hard drive is an western digital 310100 10GB 33 udma on ata0 as master with the slave unused. Normally cabled with 80 pin cable. Have tried with 40 pin cable and get same error message. Even tried 5.4 install cdrom against my production server/gateway box which is running 4.10 on a western digital 24300 4GB 33 udma and get the (No hard disk found) msg again. Them tried the 5.3 cd and it found the hard drive on the production box. Then I used an western digital 102AA 10GB 66 udma HD and 5.4 found the HD and installed just fine. Looks like udma 33 support is not working in 5.4 Anybody have 5.4 installed on a udma 33 HD from a install cdrom?
