I am using the GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD5 and trying to install CentOS 5.8 on it. I have one hard drive connected to the SATA ports controlled by the AMD southbridge. I have configured the SATA ports to IDE mode. and the BIOS sees the hard drive. But when I try to install CentOS 5.8 I get the following error
"Unable to find any device of the type needed for this installation type." It also asks for a driver disk, but I have not been able to find Linux drivers for the SATA controller on this motherboard. But I don't think thats the problem. I have seen a few posts on this forum where people use the same motherboard and have been able to install CentOS on it. If it matters I have also tried to install CentOS 6.2 with the same problem. Any suggestions on what I can do to get CentOS installed? Does anyone know where I can get drivers for this chipset? |
