[ubuntu-uk] Please can someone look at this and try tohelp............ SATA Hdd Problem.

[Daniel Lamb]

How about trying it on the onboard sata controller? Can you do that? remove
a device and plug it in?
 
Also is it a cheap or obscure sata card?  is it maybe not full supported by
ubuntu?
 
I had a perc controller on a dell server which was similar, but that was
with 6.06, to be honest i ended up just waiting for another version, perhaps
you could try 6.06, or 7.04 if you can still get hold of it?
 
Also is it possible that your card has raid or something which is possibly
conflicting, you could try switching off all your options on your card.
 
Regards,
Daniel

"I've told you why... it's the updated NTFS driver that comes with Gutsy...
if you want read-only then use the old driver... if you want read/write then
resolve the issues of the improper dismount... 

But STOP NAME DROPPING... it's driving me mad...

Perhaps if you had taken the time to really read the problem that I had you
would realise that the "improper dismount" error message that I got whtn I
used the Gutsy live CD is not the root of my problem, obviously you havent
taken the time to read it.
As for what you call name dropping, I have no intention of "dropping names"
as you call it.
Rather, I'm quite disappointed that I actually met them and that they seemed
quite genuine 
about trying to help, yet when I posted on here about the problem with a
little more info, neither have replied to any of my posts. Altogether, I'm
not surprised that linux has this bad name for an elitist attitude when it
comes to trying to get support for issues, when people like yourself behave
in this manner and you are not the only one. However there are a lot of good
people that do try to help and I would rather that they all dont get tarred
with the same brush of ignorance.
I'm am/was quite technically adept when it came to the windows OS, not so
when it comes to Ubuntu linux, hence I ask for help from the people I think
should be able to help me.
Sorry for disturbing you Mr Miller.
