Mandrake 7.2 & Win
Hi Icfoo,
The problem I'm having is: Mandrake 7.2 is recognising hda (where I have 2K installed) and hdb (where I have XP installed); but I have fitted another hard drive for Linux to inhabit and the Mandrake installer is not recognising this third hard drive. It wants to modify one of the Win drives. I think it is having a problem recognising it as the third drive is operated via a controller card - a CE 3700 PCI Ultra DMI (133 Mhz). As Mandrake 7.2 is getting on and the card has been out only a few months, there seems to be a compatability issue. I need to know how (if at all) I can resolve the issue so that I can guide the Penguin to its new home - or do I have to wait for the Mandrake 9.0 CD's and hope it recognises the drive I fitted for Linux.
My controller card is not listed in the options shown in 'Custom' install, so it can't be told where to install to. I have checked a couple of links (provided by Neo) re hardware compatability and can't find my card listed. So, I need to know how to get it to recogise my third drive.
Regards
