The motherboard has two additional serial-ata slots on a VIA chip, and a normal IDE disk on ide0. My problem is that when I boot with siimage.c enabled or try to insert it as a module after booting, it forces the drives on that card to become hda and hdb, messing things up pretty badly. How can I force that driver to use hde/hdf/... instead? Without it the drives aren't usable at all. I want a setup where hda-hdd lives on the old ATA bus and the two Serial-ATA cards comes afterwards. Is that possible? I've searched through all documentation I can find, but everybody seems to want to have the S-ATA drives as hda, hdb etc. Many thanks, /Basic
