With either a CDROM boot or a floppy built by dd'ing cdrom.img. Should I try
something else?

Yes,

7.1 beta b.  Under Mandrake 7.0 it worked ok, but with out the increased
speed.  It only recognized the drive and allowed you to use it.  But 7.1
betas won't even recognize it.

I'd vote for that.  Esp. if there is more than one site serving isos

(I'd like to see if the menus get set up properly in kde since beta2)

then that could be the problem since my ata66 drive would be hde, actually
my install partition would be hde6.

I don't know how yours is failing, but on my Soyo 6BA-IV+, it recognizes the
HPT366 chip on the IDE2 and IDE3 interfaces, but it cannot find /dev/hde
which
is where my system disk is. Mandrake 7.0-0 (using the "new" boot floppy)
didn't
have this problem.

I don't know how yours is failing, but on my Soyo 6BA-IV+, it recognizes the
HPT366 chip on the IDE2 and IDE3 interfaces, but it cannot find /dev/hde which
is where my system disk is. Mandrake 7.0-0 (using the "new" boot floppy) didn't
have this problem.

I agree. I know you mandrake guys are fighting to get 7.1 out the door, but
I'm willing to do a few more fresh installs from ISOs if it means I have a
linux distribution in my hands that is so solid I can put the CD into
virtually any (reasonable) computer and have it install and properly detect
everything.

BTW any plans for an NC100 driver?

Perhaps a 7.1 beta 3 iso should be made available to aleviate redundant
bug reports.

Hi,

Just downloaded the iso of 7.1 beta b.  And setup still fails to recognize
an ata66 drive on the a-bit motherboard.  I tried passing the io address to
the install kernel and it still will not work.  I need to install linux on
this partition.  Thought it was fixed in beta b.
