My home desktop equipped with a Initio SATA adapter.
Only a few Linux distributions support it, including Ubuntu 7.04.
I am using Gentoo on it, as the kernel is customizable, it supports my desktop too.
Today I want to try install Ubuntu 7.10 for testing, but it is so strange that it cannot find my hard disk for installation.
After dmesg and modprobe, I found that the sata_inic162x is disabled by Ubuntu, not by any configuration but the module itself stop from initializing an "unstable" adapter...
No luck today yet.
