Help: Sata on ASRock K7S8XE+
|
|
|
Hi there!
I have an Athlon 2800 on a ASRock K7S8XE+
I bought an Maxtor DiamondMax 10 Hd just for Linux (I'm leaving Xp!)
The Mobo supports Sata 1 so I set the maxtor jumper to Sata 1 mode
The problem is that I don't see it
Do I need to update the bios?
http://www.asrock.com/support/download.asp?Model=K7S8XE%2b#bios
I also tried to install the drivers just for xp, from sata website,
Sata Raid 304, but the
problem is the same...
Regards,
Stefano |

My best guess based on googling your motherboard is that it consists of
a SiS 748 northbridge and a SiS 963L southbridge. The latter would be
where the SATA support would be defined. It would probably be supported
by the Linux kernel's "sata_sis" driver.
Since that chipset combination's about three years old, probably all you
need is a Linux distribution with a recent installation kernel.

No.

In general, don't look to the manuacturers for Linux drivers except as a
last resort.
