looks like BZ #196397. Here is my lspci output from a fc5 system which had no problems to detect my sata device during install: [root@tiffy ~]# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM Express PCI Express Root Port (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #4 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev d3) 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.3 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 03) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) SATA Controller (rev 03) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Radeon Mobility M300] 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 01) 03:01.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI6515 Cardbus Controller 03:01.5 Communication controller: Texas Instruments PCI6515 SmartCard Controller 03:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (rev 05) same behaviour here with FC7test2 an VMware-server-1.0.2-39867 no disk was found during the installation.

I can confirm this with RHEL 5 Server and VMware Server 1.0.2. No disk found. Using workaround with buslogic driver doesn't help. My working workaround is to create IDE disk... I am having the same problem (no disks found for installation) with the following system: motherboard: ECS Elitegroup P965T V1.0B (P965 Northbridge, ICH8 Southbridge) cpu: Intel Core2Duo E6400 hard disks: Maxtor SATA II 300 GB (2) memory: 2 GB bios: AwardBIOS v6.00PG The BIOS sees the two identical drives as IDE Channel 0 Master and IDE Channel 1 Master. I have tried setting the SATA2 controller to both IDE Mode and RAID Mode in the BIOS without making the disks visible to the Fedora Core installer. I have tried several different Fedora builds: Fedora Core 6 (FC-6-x86_64-DVD): The installer loads the ahci and ata_piix drivers. Anaconda does not see any hard drives to use for the installation. Fedora Core 5 (FC-5-x86_64-DVD): The installer loads the ata_piix driver. The installer says "No driver found" and asks me to either select a driver or use a driver disk.Since I do not know what driver to install, I have not proceeded beyond this point. Fedora 7 Test 1 (F-6.90-x86_64-DVD): The installer loads the pata_jmicron and ata_piix drivers. Anaconda does not see any hard drives to use for the installation. Fedora 7 Test 3 (F-6.92-x86_64-DVD): The installer loads the pata_jmicron and ata_piix drivers. Anaconda generates an exception at the point where it should present the drive installation options. I do not know how to save the exception details, but here is the traceback: File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/autopart_type.py", line 286, in getScreen defaultBoot = self.anaconda.id.bootloader.drivelist[0] File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1128, in setScreen new_screen = self.currentWindow.getScreen(anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 1039, in nextClicked self.setScreen() IndexError: list index out of range Fedora 7 Test 4 (F-6.93-x86_64-DVD): The installer loads the pata_jmicron and ata_piix drivers. Anaconda does not see any hard drives to use for the installation. I do not have a practical workaround for the problem, because the motherboard only has one IDE controller, and an IDE cable is not long enough to reach from the hard drive bay to the DVD drive bay in my Antec case. *** Bug 209871 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Fix in kernel-2.6.22.6-55.fc6, submitted for testing. (We really shouldn't have to fix vmware's bugs -- this workaround may be removed in some future release.) Chuck, where can i download the new kernel, on testing http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/updates/testing/6/i386/ the kernel isn't already available.
