Sata/ICH9R drivers
I just aquired a FS Primergy Econel 100S2:
http://facts.fujitsu-siemens.com/ind...&lid=26&page=1 It has a bad case of ICH9R, bummer. Googling the 'no disk found' error in Sysinstall turned up a fair bit of information, but no definitive advice. So the question is 'Can it (Sata disks on ICH9R, FBSD 7.0) be done, if so how?' TIA Last edited by michaelrmgreen; 11th September 2008 at 02:00 PM. Reason: ICH9R not ICH8R |

I assume you still mean the ICH9R. I installed 7.0 32 bit on a Gigabyte P35-DS3R, which has the same south bridge. No issues with the install, using either IDE emulation or AHCI for the disks. The DVD used was PATA; the JMicron controller worked just fine too. Sorry I can't help more, but this part worked just as it should.

You might try a live CD and see what dmesg has to say.

current 8 snapshots worked fine on my Intel DP35P ICH9 board.

SOLVED.
One BIOS flash later and I'm able to install 6.2 from the CD. (Not 7.1 beta though, but that's probably beta strangeness). Incidentally, the flash file and utility are available in a file which makes a bootable USB stick. Very useful if you need a bootable USB stick, for any purpose, and are having trouble working out how to make one. The (Windows) utility is here: http://support.fujitsu-siemens.com/d...8-10CC6DAE0D82 |
