SanDisk's flash memory drives won't work as IDE slave under
Linux

- the BIOS finds the drive okay
- but when Linux boots it does fine the drive if it is a
slave

- does find the drive if it is set as a master
Comment 1 David Lawrence 1999-02-06 00:30:59 UTC 
I do not currently see this hardware listed on the hardware
compatibility list so it is possible that Linux itself is not seeing
it because it does not yet support it. New drivers are being worked on
all the time so you may see this become supported in the near future.
