Stupid question - probably an RTFA one at that so sorry in advance -
would this list be looked at by any one of the Fedora coders? There are
many basic Q&As which is good but is there another place for me to ask
or relate my problem/s?
Yes there are developers hanging around on this list as well. Whether your
question is appropriate for fedora-devel is another matter (which I can't
answer since you didn't include any of those questions here :)
Usually it doesn't hurt asking first on fedora-list, it's much more
catch-all in nature than the other forums.

Thanks Panu. Earlier in the list I asked about kernel >= 2.4.24 (I
think) recognising my sata disk as hde and booting from it no
problems. The FC1 kernels never did, though - I had to compile my
own. I was surprised about the sata section not being in the low-level
scsi driver section but it the kernel worked anyway. The 2.6 series
kernel seem to have gone back to the bad old days (from my point of
view) of needing libata, that piix module and the other low level scsi
drivers. In fact to boot my system at all I had to modify the initrd
to load these modules.
