It has this pata chip: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82815 815 Chipset Host Bridge and Memory Controller Hub (rev 04) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801BAM IDE U100 (rev 03) aka 00:00.0 Class 0600: 8086:1130 (rev 04) Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0 Memory at e8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64M] 00:1f.1 Class 0101: 8086:244a (rev 03) Subsystem: 8086:4541 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 0 I/O ports at bfa0 [size=16] I left out the regualt ide support and added: CONFIG_SCSI_ATA=y CONFIG_SCSI_ATA_PATA=y CONFIG_SCSI_ATA_ATAPI=y CONFIG_SCSI_ATA_PIIX=y The laptop has its fixed drive at hda, its fixed cd/dvd at hdb and its media bay drive (whatever may be installed) at hdc. root=/dev/sda3 failed to find the root fs. I don't have anything here to plug into the serial port, so I cannot record the boot messages. Is my controller among the supported PIIX/ICH PATA chipsets? -JimC
