You may want to grep dmesg and see what it found during boot up. Something along the lines of: dmesg|grep hd should be sufficient to see what linux found for /dev/hd* stuff. This of course assumes it is IDE, if you are using scsi you will want to look for sd instead of hd. Also, double check you cables and jumpers. -- Linux Administrator || Technology Specialist || Wifi Engineer http://autonomous.tv/~spencer/resume/ || spencer at autonomous.tv Key fingerprint = 173B 8760 E59F DBF8 6FD2 68F8 ABA2 AB08 49C7 4754 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
