I just booted 2.6.21.1 (the latest AFAIK) from my /dev/sda, which is a SATA= =20 drive. If it is sda*, it is the SCSI subsystem, otherwise it would be hda*. % dmesg|grep sda SCSI device sda: 156250000 512-byte hdwr sectors (80000 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support= =20 DPO or FUA SCSI device sda: 156250000 512-byte hdwr sectors (80000 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support= =20 DPO or FUA sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sda So once again: if it is SATA, you need (in addition to the driver for your= =20 SATA chip): CONFIG_SCSI=3Dy CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=3Dy and, eventually CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=3Dm And btw, even PATA is in the SCSI subsystem nowadays (my system has SATA hd= ,=20 but PATA cdrom, attached to an Intel ICH6 chipset): % dmesg|grep -i scsi SCSI subsystem initialized scsi0 : ata_piix scsi1 : ata_piix scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4481B E106 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 scsi2 : ata_piix scsi3 : ata_piix scsi 2:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA WDC WD800JD-75JN 06.0 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 SCSI device sda: 156250000 512-byte hdwr sectors (80000 MB) SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support= =20 DPO or FUA SCSI device sda: 156250000 512-byte hdwr sectors (80000 MB) SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support= =20 DPO or FUA sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sda Bye...
