Hi,
Last week I bought a new system & downloaded Centos 4.2. Here is the detailed configuration of the PC:
a) Seagate 80GB Sata HDD: Model Number:ST3808110AS
b) ASUS ADN-VM Mother board c) AMD 3000+ 64bit d) Other things are common & dont think they are required in this context.
I am not able to install Centos 4.2. After the step to check install media, I get this message:
"No hard drives have been found. You probably need to manually choose device drivers for the installation to succeed. Would you like to select drivers now?" If I choose yes, I am shown a list of device drivers. I tried some of them, but nothing worked.
I have tried installing both 32 bit & 64 bit versions of Centos 4.2. Each of them gave the same message.
I googled a bit, but could not get anything to work for me.
The HDD is installed properly. I was able to install another flavor of Linux (Mandriva). I did not try with Centos 4.3 because I have heard that Centos 4.2 fully supports SATA disks.
Please help,
Thanks & regards, Ravi.

I'd try a couple of things.
First, is the BIOS on that motherboard current? I have had problems before with devices not being recognized that were fixed when I updated to the latest BIOS.
Second, I have a vague memory of reading some kind of problem with Seagate SATA drives. You might try googling a bit to see if anything comes up. I'd try installing from CentOS 4.3, as that will have the most current versions of drivers & software.

sounds like the SATA interface on the motherboard is not supported by centos-4.2, you might want to try the 4.3 installer ?
also, if you have another distro installed, can you let us know what the output from 'lspci -n' and 'lspci -v' is ? it might be possible to try and find drivers for this interface. ( could you post this info on http://bugs.centos.org and let us know here a url for the bug id, rather than posting all that info here )
lspci -n gives: 0000:00:00.0 0600: 8086:7190 (rev 01) 0000:01:00.0 0604: 8086:7191 (rev 01) 0000:07:00.0 0601: 8086:7110 (rev 08) 0000:07:00.1 0101: 8086:7111 (rev 01) 0000:07:00.2 0c03: 8086:7112 0000:07:00.3 0680: 8086:7113 (rev 08) 0000:0f:00.0 0300: 15ad:0405 0000:10:00.0 0100: 104b:1040 (rev 01) 0000:11:00.0 0200: 1022:2000 (rev 10) 0000:12:00.0 0401: 1274:1371 (rev 02)

Hi All,
Yes, the dump was taken from VMWare. I did not want to reboot. So I used a ubuntu live cd to get that info.
Later, I retried installing CentOS 4.2. I opted yes when I was shown this message:
"No hard drives have been found. You probably need to manually choose device drivers for the installation to succeed. Would you like to select drivers now?"
And then tried one at a time. One of them worked! I was delighted. The installation went on perfectly. No issues at all. But when I attempted to boot into CentOS, there was an issue. The machine hung.
This was the sequence: *.* Setting Network parameters ------------ [OK] Bringing up lookback interface --------
At this point system hangs. Keyboard & mouse do not respond. Control Alt Del does not work. Monitor which was good until this time, starts showing "granules"...
I tried again after turning off router. (I have a broad band connection from Tata Indicom). But it stuck again while "Bringing up loopback interface"
Please help me boot CentOS.
Regards, Ravi.

boot into runlevel 3, disconnect all usb devices.
Hi,
a) Am very sorry for not disclosing that I used VMWare.
b) NVIDIA SATA controller was the one that worked.
c) "boot into runlevel 3, disconnect all usb devices." Do you mean, I should login in text mode? I am getting the error when Linux starts the services. Something like this:
....[OK] ....[OK] ....[OK] ....[OK] ....[OK] Setting Network parameters ------------ [OK] Bringing up lookback interface -------- <system hangs at this point>
I do not have any USB devices.
Sorry again for not disclosing VMWare use, Regards, Ravi.
