Hi All

Just installed Duckys 10.5.4 all went well , installed SB 700 kext from here and all working well BUT
Cannot see an other HDD attached to my system, i have installed osx on a 80 gig IDE HDD as because i had the dreaded "Still waiitng for root device" if i installed on a sata drive, I would like to see my other drives and Optical drive aswell which are all SATA. Any ideas?

motherboard is Gigabyte 770 US3

The weird thing is when i do the install i can see all my drives with disk utility ?

Need to check the Nforce SATA/IDEdriver in customize during install. Check this: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.5.7

Thanks i worked it out i changed STA from AHCI to IDE and all drives are accessible now seems strange i have to Enable AHCOI to install then back to IDE once installed. But it works so im not complaining, This is my first Foray into OSX and so far i dont mind it. Pity MAc Hardware Looks Ugly.
