Title: Installation Fails On Lenovo Desktop
Post by: rajesh.bahl on August 02, 2008, 05:23:07 AM

We are facing a problem in installation of RHEL 5 in Lenovo Desktop Thinkcentre A60 (9631-A26).
During installation, the system gives message: No hard drives found on your system.

Thus installation gets aborted.

The motherboard in this machine is having G51G  Nvidia Chipset. Lenovo website does not give any drivers for linux. Also the same is not available from Nvidia site.
Can some one suggest solution for this problem ?



regards

I guess it is problem about Sata controller as most probably lenevo have sata disc but I am not sure.

If you can get RHEL 5.1 then try it out as I heard that release was to fix SATA issue over Redhat enterprise linux 5 ie. RHEL 5.

Dear Ricky,

We have RHEL 5 only. Even if it works with RHEL 5.1, will not affect us.

Is there any way that we can make some driver disk and use it with RHEL 5 ?
