upon searching in the forum i came accross this tread http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=9887&forum=29...
but it has gone unanswered for two years.
Google search gives result all of which involves moving to a newer kernel.For the matter the drive gets mounted under fedora 9 - but i want to use it with CentOS.
here is my lspci -v
