If so, try to remove the "autotune" parameter from your boot parameters. -- Guillaume Cottenceau -- Distribution Developer for MandrakeSoft http://www.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/
[Cooker] Disk Drake beta-2 ISO install
Diskdrake 7.2 (not 7.1 /7.0 they work fine) appears to have a problem detecting partitions when my dvd drive is pluged in. eg hda = 20gb ibm hdb = dvd drive hdc = 20gb ibm hdd = ide cd-rw hda will fail to detect (bad magic number in partition table) when i do hda = 20gb ibm hdb = ide cd-rw hdc = 20gb ibm hdd = dvd drive hdc fails to detect correctly when i do hda = 20gb ibm hdb = ide cd-rw hdc = 20gb ibm all is ok... all drives are on udma66 leads, i also have a hpt470 (aka hpt466) with nothing pluged in as ide2/3 (this pc dosn't have 2 extended partition tables like my other one ;-)
