Q: Does the FreeBSD 5.4 support SerialATA hard drives?
I tried to install previous version (5.3) on the machine
with 160GB Seagate Barracuda (8mb cache) drive (ST3160023AS).
It said something like "no hard drive found".
Did it find a controller?
Where is the problem? As far as I know, Seagate don't provide
drivers for *nix systems. What I should do?
No reason for Seagate to provide drivers as hard drives are mostly
generic. What you need is for FreeBSD to see your controller before
it can see your drives.
I've had a pair of Hitachi SATA drives since sometime around 5.1.
