hi guys.
i am having compaq nx6120 laptop with intel 82801FBM ata controller. i am not new to linux but when i compiled kernel on crux, it doesn't work. actually it is hdd controller , that kernel fail to identify. i have compiled with libata support. and passed argument combined_mode=libata to linux kernel. i want to know that what configuration i should change so that it can identify controller properly. and
I dont know the hardware personally but according to my quick google search CONFIG_ATA_PIIX needs to be built into the kernel. is it (not as a module)? What kid of drive is it connected to? ide or sata? http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Intel_82801FBM
Boot off a live cd and run "lspci -k" be sure you compile that in as [*] as Fredrik mentioned. Also you must have the file system compiled in too. And make sure your pointing your boot loader to the correct root file system.
