As I already noted in Bug #270151 option "break=modules" to load the libata driver hangs my system before the busybox prompt appers.
No BIOS option exists to disable/remove the HPA. Once I remove the HPA with HDAT2 it reappears after I reboot the system. I currently see no chance of installing a fresh Ubuntu 8.10 on my system. The only option seems to be the upgrade of an 8.04 installation which uses a modprobe file to load libata correctly. -- Manual partitioning shows no partitions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
