Hi,
I want to install 9atom on a ThinkPad T400 laptop. T400 uses the
ICH9M-E/M SATA controller. Both the CD-ROM and the internal HDD are on
the same SATA controller.
When I boot 9atom, it prompts me with:
Boot devices fd0 sdE0!9fat
boot from: sdE1!cdboot!9pcflop.gz
boot from:
It seems that it doesn't find all my SATA devices. sdE0 seems to be
the internal HDD (suspicion augmented by the fact that it has a 9fat
partition on it). I guess my CD-ROM should be sdE1 (as I tried above)
but when trying that it doesn't seem to do anything -- no error,
nothing changes. I am prompted again asking for the boot device.
I have tried sdE0 to sdE6, same behavior.
Do you think it's a bug that prevents the CD-ROM from being detected?
Any suggestions on what to do next?
Thanks,
