If I recall, the Inspiron 6000 uses a SATA drive which the 2.6.8 kernel on the Sarge installer has trouble with. However, I have been able to get the 2.4 kernel in the installer to see some SATA drives. Which kernel are you using to install with? I think you will need to do a standard install with the 2.4 kernel and then build a custom 2.6.12 kernel. This isn't so bad, since you would need to build a newer 2.6 kernel to get ACPI and WiFi working anyway. -- Bill Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
