edubuntu-users Digest, Vol 9, Issue 20

You can find photos of the different connector types below:

If the Windows CD's fdisk can see the hard disk, though, it shouldn't be a driver problem. I haven't the slightest clue why the Installer wouldn't be able to see something Microsoft's fdisk can see...
 
Is there perhaps some form of "factory formatting" option in fdisk? I dunno, I'm grasping at straws here...

Thanks for the complement. 

I assume it's IDE, but I don't really know how to tell. 

The fdisk I'm referring to is what I run from the installer command shell I get into from the Rescue a Broken System startup option.
