There have been modifications to the boot=20 loader, I think they will be present in 7.1. The controller is a different problem - apparently the driver doesn't=20 recognize it. There are a few things you can try but all of them depend=20 on that you can compile and boot a different kernel on the machine (i.e. = different from what's on the official CDs). If you can do this (for=20 example, by installing a test system on a drive on a different,=20 supported controller, or possibly on a USB drive), ask on hardware@=20 mailing list for further instructions. --------------enig543507A53B18D415A9D7BD27 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFImYhVldnAQVacBcgRAiKFAJ9VdpGD2hMmQF2DTXdacmI0Z5mKVgCeLD39 jgtG7YMsE1Fz3XIMALjLcZw= =L8lM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig543507A53B18D415A9D7BD27--
