Comment 26 for bug 8978

hi!

After installing ubuntu 7.10 with the live installation cd, i also received the message "error 21". Ubuntu was installed on the second IDE drive (WD 80G), while first disk is SATA2 (WD 250G) with win xp installed.

I tried installation with sata disk unpluged and i didnt work, then i tried with pluged-in sata and it didnt work either.

IDE disk is recognised in win xp and working fine, but strange, BIOS has some problems with this. Even after entering the number of heads, sectors, cylinders, IDE disk in BIOS is shown as none!?

Anyway, i'm not some computer expert, but posting here with hope that developers will no forget to focus on this bug ;), becouse i would really like to use ubuntu.
