Installation failed and the reason I think is that FC4 ata-piix driver don't have ICH9 support. Is it possible to port new ata-piix driver ( from kernel 2.6.23 ) to old kernel. I had a look at the sources and the task seems difficult because changes from ver. 1.03 to 2.12 are signifficant. Or you can suggest some other solution to that problem. Kalev
