I'd say that's your problem there :) Add a --preload and load the applicable module based on how your bios is set up. If it can do AHCI, and I think it can, use that. Not sure how mkinitrd works from a livecd when your modprobe.conf is on the "rescued" system. Maybe running from a chroot might overcome any ambiguity, but you most likely don't have an appropriate modprobe.conf on the dead system that is even right. --preload will force it in where it needs to be. You need some combination of ahci, ata_piix and libata. Someone the wiser chime in. Those are what are applicable to this mobo under any possible config, it's an ICH7 board. jlc _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
