the x86_64 kernel detects only two out of four SATA drives.
I have the same problem with Fedora 7, I yum-ed to it to have the new
apps, but I still run a FC6 kernel, which detects them just fine.
I have two WD360GD-00FL (sda, sdb) - detected by F8- and two
ST3300831AS (sdc,sdd) - _not_ detected by F8.
I appear to be able to work around this by booting with pnpacpi=off.
Does anyone know if there is any downside to that?
Thanks, Willem Riede.
