Hello Leann,

I came across this report when I was attempting to solve a very similar sounding issue to the reported above. I thought I would give you my feedback...

I was using Hardy 8.04.1 on x86. I have a RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID Controller (rev 50) card which was also not showing any drives which attached.

I have installed 8.10 Alpha 5 (a clean install - the upgrade did not appear to work very well). But now it appears that the clean install does the same thing, it takes a _very_ long time to start up, at first I actually thought it never would which is why I reinstalled.

The machine is quite old, a 1GHz Athlon, but it is not intended to be under much load.

I have attached the information which was requested above, the results of dmesg and lspci -vvv

I still do not see the attched drives, although another time I started up, gparted did see one of the two drives.

Regards,

Jerry
