Your chipset appears newer than sarge, so full support is very unlikely. many intel chipsets support a dumb mode in which it combines the sata and ide devices into one pile of ide devices (for dos/windows installer compatibility) which makes the linux driver (at least in the kernel used by sarge) confused so it either sees the ide devices or the sata but not both. Setting the bios to native/enhanced mode rather than combined/emulation mode tends to make that problem go away. On the other hand some systems (mainly Dell) won't even let you have such a bios option. You may have better luck with the daily builds since they have newer drivers (2.6.15 kernel). Or you can see if 2.6.12 kernel is better and use my sarge installer from www.tinyplanet.ca/~lsorense/amd64/ Good luck.

I had a similar problem with Gentoo LiveCD for amd64. The system wan't able to see my SATA disc.. I can still boot from ubuntu ( for amd64 ) and install Debian from chroot.

Netinst cd wasn't able to mount itself to fire the installer...
Hi I have such a problem: I've downloaded debian-amd64 'netinst' cd ( from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/sarge-amd64/iso-cd/debian-31r0a-amd64-netinst.iso ) but after boot, installer isn't able to 'mount cd' ( as it screams ) to continue the installation.. It asked me to choose the proper module for my cdrom and choose the valid /dev/ but when I've went to a 2nd term and listed all files in /dev/ there wasn't any device file for my cdrom :/ This is what lspci talks at my gentoo: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 915G/P/GV/GL/PL/910GL Express Memory Cont roller Hub (rev 0e) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 915G/P/GV/GL/PL/910GL Express PCI Express Root Port (rev 0e) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) US B UHCI #1 (rev 05) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) US B UHCI #2 (rev 05) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) US B UHCI #3 (rev 05) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) US B UHCI #4 (rev 05) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) US B2 EHCI Controller (rev 05) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev d5) 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (IC H6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FR (ICH6/ICH6R) LPC Interface Brid ge (rev 05) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FW (ICH6/ICH6W) SATA Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) SMBus Contr oller (rev 05) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV380 0x3e50 [Radeon X60 0] 01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV380 [Radeon X600] Secondary 02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 08) 02:05.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ether net Controller (rev 13) 02:06.0 RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
