Hi everybody!
I need install slackware 10.1 , but my cfdisk cannot open disk drive. I
have 2 SATA disks.
Help me please.

did you have a successful install? Suggesations use the reiserfs and the
jfs.s kernel, this will help you.

at the boot prompt type sata.i - this will use the sata kernel image and
you will be able to see your drives

Please pay attention. "I need install slackware 10.1". Obviously he
hasn't installed it yet.

This is the second time you recomended some one use reiserfs for a
partition and jfs.s as their kernel. I didn't call bullshit the first
time, because a diff on the configs for bare.i and jfs.s showed SCSI
support for the AIC7xxx series and the user in question was using an
unspecified Adaptec card, but this time I absolutley have to. Here is
a simple diff listing the changes.

alan@carrier:/home/slackware/slackware-10.1/kernels$ diff bare.i/config
jfs.s/config
566c566
< CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=m
- ---
> CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=y
582,585d581
< CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX_OLD=m
< # CONFIG_AIC7XXX_OLD_TCQ_ON_BY_DEFAULT is not set
< CONFIG_AIC7XXX_OLD_CMDS_PER_DEVICE=8
< # CONFIG_AIC7XXX_OLD_PROC_STATS is not set
1548c1544
< CONFIG_JFS_FS=m
- ---
> CONFIG_JFS_FS=y

So in other words, aside from supporting _one_ additional piece of
hardware and the JFS filesystem, jfs.s is identical to bare.i. Now
tell me, why in Bob's name would you recomend some one use the jfs.s
kernel and reiserfs?

Ok, aside from the rant on me, bare.i did not even like my system.
reiserfs and jfs.s were the only settings I could actually get to work.
The nice thing is the Journaling file system. Rather than a bunch of
small partitions like old UNIX was. I had S.C.O. Unixware 2.1.2 and that
is how it worked. Mixing bare.i, or speak or any other one, the system
gets a 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 boot error. Does this help?

This brings up a minor issue I've encountered: if I boot off the
live CD, I see my SATA drives (Hitachi 80GB, attached to a SiI 3112) as
ATA devices, /dev/hde and hdg. But in trying to compile 2.6 to see
them, I can only get them to be seen as SCSI drives. Not that I mind
that much - if they work, they work - but what's the deal with that?
What choices do I have to make in the kernel config for them to be seen
as ATA drives?

Trim your posts. There is absolutely no need to quote everything, only
that which is necessary to maintain context.

Immaterial. Correlationg does not necessarily indicate causation.
Unless by chance you had a hard drive on the one scsi controller that
jfs.s supports that bare.i doesn't, there's no reason why bare.i
wouldn't work on your hardware.

This has nothing to do with journaling. ext2 supports rather large
partitions just like reiserfs. In fact, I don't know when a
filesystem's maximum partition size has ever come up IME outside of DOS
and FAT filesystems.

Indeed. JFGI[0] and you'll figure it out I'm sure. This is a
boot-loader error message that indicates that for some reason, LILO was
not able to locate the kernel (or possibly the System.map file, I
forget which, though I suspect the kernel).

Fuck off, Hicks. You're not in charge around here. People can post
the way they want and if you don't like it, you can go and fuck
yourself.

Fuck off, Hicks.
