I have a computer that I am having trouble installing
Storm2000 Hail (2.0 - 8 Aug 2000) on. It is a P166 and
the problem seems to be with the secondary PCI IDE
controller card.
controller. I had a problem with the IDE controller
(primary and secondary) that is built into the
motherboard so I added a Promise Ultra/33 (tertiary
and quaternary) controller.
This controller works fine with Win98, Linux Mandrake
7.1, Red Hat 6.2 and 7.0, but when the install of
Storm gets to the partitioning section, no drives or
partitions are listed.
With other Linux distributions, the first IDE disk
drive is labeled /dev/hda, second is /dev/hdb ...
With my computer the first IDE drive is /dev/hde
because no hard drives are connected to the primary
IDE controller, but are connected to the Promise
controller.
I went to another virtual terminal and logged on as
root and looked in the /dev directory. These was no
/dev/hde, /dev/hdf, /dev/hdg, /dev/hdh there.
Does a new boot.img floppy image exist that supports
more hard disks? If not, would it be easy to create?
Also please let me know if this is not appropriate for
