You can try to load it by hand, to see if the kernel module recognizes
your hardware.

  Take the latest AMD64 kernel on
  http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/download/amd64/ 
  I think it's a 2.6.10 kernel with correct working SATA support.
  
  Ok. I actually have tried to use this kernel.
  
  What I have is the vmlinuz-2.6.10-fai and System.map-2.6.10-fai files for

  as well as the /lib/modules/2.6.10-fai  copied to the nfsroot/.

Try to put the kernel module into the file
faisetup/class/20-hwdetect.source. For me it's the sata_nv module as
I'm using a NVIDIA chipset board.

Does anyone have an install kernel for 2.6.x that supports SATA drives?

Or can someone point me to the sources/configs for building my own?

There are also 2.6.8 and a 2.6.10 kernels for amd64 with sata support at
the download/amd64 section of the fai web page.

install-kernel for amd64

Hi list,

the kernel in the .deb on 
http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/download/amd64/ 
lacks support for LSI Logic / MPT - devices (mpt*.ko) 

These controllers seem to become more popular, and are being built into HPs 
Xeon-Workstations (at least xw6200 )
and SUN's v20z (likely also v40z, but I haven't checked..)
I just remade the kernel with these changes to /boot/config-2.6.8-fai :

---Snip---
quark:~# diff config-2.6.8-fai /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.8/.config
292d291
 # CONFIG_AIC7XXX_BUILD_FIRMWARE is not set
300d298
 # CONFIG_AIC79XX_BUILD_FIRMWARE is not set
373c371,375
 # CONFIG_FUSION is not set
---
 CONFIG_FUSION=m
 CONFIG_FUSION_MAX_SGE=40
 CONFIG_FUSION_ISENSE=m
 CONFIG_FUSION_CTL=m
 CONFIG_FUSION_LAN=m
---Snap---

Maybe this'l make it into fai 2.9 ?

Greetings,

Sanso
