Sorry I believe I listed the wrong type of chipset, mine is the SiS962

Hi,

I am having a problem installing openSuse (suse 10 OSS) on one of my
machines, the other installations went fine (so I know the disks work and I
am not a complete novice at this).

The machine that suse won't install on, is an Asus Pundit AS with the
SiS651 chipset, a MAXTOR 80GB HDD, Celeron-D 2.8GHz ... I boot off the
installation CD, and when it gets to the part in installation called
"Analysing the Computer", it errors with the following message:

Error
No hard disks were found for the installation.
Please check your hardware!

I know my hard disk is there, and it is still mountable in knoppix, I have
tried formatting it, I have tried installing with ACPI off, and in safe
mode and with insmod=ide-generic, all to no avail. Does anyone know what is
going on here, is it the sis5513 module not recognising my chipset?

I also notice the following errors in other terminals

linux kernel: hda: task_no_data_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete
Error }
linux kernel: hda: task_no_data_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
linux kernel: hda: failed opcode was: 0xea
linux kernel: hda: wcache flush failed!

There doesn't appear to be a problem physically, because I have since
installed knoppix and can use the drive just fine, but I want to clean
install openSuse on this machine.

Please if anyone has any ideas I'd be very grateful
