Also, are you saying that I must compile the driver into the kernel? This means I first have to be able to install to a single drive on the system first, right?? If this is the case, this gets me back to my other problem which is the 6.0-RELEASE installer won't find my single hard drive (either EIDE or SATA) which I have directly connected to the tyan i7520 mobo ;-( ...I have posted this problem as a seperate discussion in paralle with this one. thanks, ke han
