** Description changed:

  1.)   Ubuntu Hardy Heron, updated 7th of Feb. 2008
          Installation from CD not possible (Desktop-, Alternate-i386 CDs)
  
  2.)   HDD: Samsung T166 Spinpoint 320GB, S-ATA2
          Motherboard: Asus M3N78-EMH HDMI (with Geforce 8200 GPU onboard)
          CPU: AMD 64 X2 BE-2400
          RAM: 4 GB DDR2-800 Mhz A-DATA
  
  3.)   The HDD is not recognized while installing Hardy from CD: 
          * partition window is empty, can't make any changes (Desktop CD)
          * driver-list is prompting, you have to choose, which one could fit 
(Alternate CD)
       
  
  4.)   Problematic recognition with gutsy, too. After formating the hdd gutsy 
recognizes the hdd.
        (...hardy not)
  
  My HDDs partitions now:
  1.NTFS        30GB
  2.NTFS        50GB
  3.ext3        25GB ← primary, root
  4.ext3  ~210GB ← logical, \home
  
  If I choose the standard Hardy Heron Mode (kernel 2.6.24-11), it hangs
  up at the following point:
  
  [    4.276000] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) 
  [    4.288000] ata1.00: qc timeout (cmd0xec)
  [           ...     ] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4)
  [           ...     ] ata1.00: failed to recover some devices
  ..
  ...
  ....
  sr 6:0:1:0 Attached scsi generic sg1 type5
  Done.
  
  Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline 
  or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules  ls/dev
  ALERT! /dev/disk/by-unid/9ae09019-d95f-4cd3-bd46-16c7bfddf2dd does not exist
  Dropping to a shell!
  
  Debian BusyBox...
  ----------------------------
  
  under hardy/gutsy with kernel 2.6.22-14 :
  
  [    4.276000] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) 
  [    4.288000] ata1.00: ATA-8: SAMSUNG HD321KJ, CP100-12, max UDMA7
+ 
+ -----------
+ 
+ After reading about S-ATA a little bit. Maybe it could be a problem of the 
S-ATA Controller on the Mainboard, which should be from Nvidia in my case.
+ I tried a Debian Installation and it, of course, didn't work, too. In the 
large list of possible drivers I choosed "Sata_nv" but, like I said, it didn't 
work.
+ So maybe I'm just too much of an idiot choosing the right sata-controller 
driver. Or.. the "driver modul" isn't implemented into the kernel, yet?!
