Title:
  Unable to install, sata (sda) drive not appearing in partitioner...

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  During the Install process I am unable to find my 320gb seagate sata2
  hd, the installer however detects my 1tb seagate sata drive.

  During the install after working my way through the installer the
  partition manager begins to load slows around 47% after a short pause
  finishes, but does not advance for approximately 3mins to the
  partitioner screen.

  Once at the partitioner screen it only shows the Terabyte drive (sdb)
  and no option to select sda drive.

  If I open the disk utilities I can mount, add, delete partitions from
  the sda drive, so I have tried to the installer with sda
  mounted...unmounted, clear space on the drive....

  I have installed many versions of linux over the last couple of years
  using the installers, but hadn't encountered this one on my system...
  somehow I get the impression this is going to involve me recompiling
  my kernel... lol

  My sys
  Intel Core 2 E8400
  Asus P5Qpro Mb
  2gb firestix ram
  Nvidia 9600 512mb vid card

  Want to dual boot with Vista (since I like to game) yes I've used
  Cedega with decent results....

  any ideas would be appreciated.
