I also changed the cable, and i know HD was working because I used it before with another system, still is pretty new ! So, now my intention is to try to use another HD, probably a SATA device But i could not find reference to my controllers in the HARDWARE.HTM of the release notes. these are: atapci0: < PROMISE PDC20378 SATA150 controller > ata2: on atapci0 ata3: on atapci0 ata4: on atapci0 atapci1: < VIA 6420 SATA150 controller > ata5: on atapci1 ata6: on atapci1 atapci2: < VIA 8237 UDMA133 controller > ata0: on atapci2 ata1: on atapci2 so i though of installing a SATA HD instead when i would find the above controllers to be supported. any hints ? :) thanks a G, alex --=20 ** acme aka Alex D'Elia --> root.acme.com ** mail:: acme@enemy.org ** --3MwIy2ne0vdjdPXF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBWdYaC2Okd+em6LURAqPiAJ9zLvVvxLxBw72gUWFj9EaSHvWK3gCfb5nA 8IMWRxqoUE4ckjtqlYaQARc= =9hIl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --3MwIy2ne0vdjdPXF--
