No harddrive found

I have a HP Pavillion DV9627Cl. I put in the boot CD, and it doesn't find a hard drive. I have a 80gig SATA hard drive and windows vista and a 110gig HD with vista on it. I deleted the SATA HD so it is "unallocated space". I still can't find out how to find a HD.

Don't know if this will help, but the last couple of times the following error popped up and wouldn't load the CD anymore. The last time it did load it:

Code Signing: cd_invalid_page: P= 41[Configd] clearing CS_VALID

I don't know what that means, or if it will help anyone. The CD only stopped working after the first time it didn't find the HD and I went to quit installer and I shutdown while it was still quiting. When it got to that error and didn't load anymore, I turned it off. It wasn't until the last time that it worked, so I don't know if it is fixed or not.

 

Thanks for all help in advanced,

You first need to find out what SATA controller this laptop uses.

Sorry to hi-jack this thread,

 

I have a similar problem. Where I am able to get up to the setup screen, and then when I go to format my disks in Disk Utilities. I only see my DVD ROM drive and nothing else. Although when I plug in my memory stick the setup picks it up.

 

My specs are as follows

AMD X2 4400+

4G Ram

ATI HD2400XT Card

Mobo is Asus M2N-VM HDMI

I have 4 SATA harddrives

1 x DVD-RW (IDE) and 1 x DVD-ROM (IDE)

 

I have been searching high and low and no one seems to have any ideas except that Leopard doesn't support SATA? I have previously installed Leopard on my old motherboard and PC (it was a P4 and still had the same disks and all are SATA) So I'm a bit confused as to why it gets all the way to the setup and all the disks are missing. Also how do I find out what SATA controller I use?

I'm having the same problem as protonus and have been for a while. I've tried both Kalyway 10.5.1 and Kalyway 10.5.2 and it only shows up with the DVD drive and pen drives if I put one in. I would really apreciate a solution to this because i'm absolutely sick of using Windows and my MacBook is broken and out of warrenty ;)

Yes I have tried both Kaly's 10.5.1 and 10.5.2 and I have tried another version (forgot the name and I'm at work at the moment, my lunch break), it's called "Jaka" something or other.

 

Is it just something really simple that I need to do? Something stupid that I'm missing? I don't want to give this up. I want to try it. I have managed to install it on my previous system which still had the exact same HD's and DVD drives? So it must be my MOBO? Right? M2N-VM HDMI? :(

 

Thanks...

I think you are all having problems with lack of a sata driver. Especially the nforce boards.

You would do better askin questions on

How could it be a problem with SATA HD drivers for me? Only one of my harddrives are SATA, but Kalyway doesn't find ANY HD. The only thing it finds is my Disk drive with Kalyway in it.

Also, how do I find out what SATA controller this laptop uses?

EDIT: I found my drive types under computer management. I don't know if this is what you were thinking of, but my primary HD is a

Hitachi HTS542512K9SA00 ATA device and the one that I want to install it on is:

WDC WD800BEVS-60RST0 ATA Device

 

EDIT2: I tried Leo4all v3 but no luck. It would not even load the installation. It just stayed there saying "still waiting for root device..."

Ok, I finally know how to inject them (Transmac). I only need to know which ones. I don't know which ones will do what and it won't let me inject all of them. It always stops at 22% and 25%. Below is the link to find the .kext, can someone please take a look at them and try to tell me which ones are for SATA HD and which ones I shouldn't inject.

 

Thanks for all help in advanced.

Can someone tell me where I need to inject the .kext because I think i'm putting them in the wrong place. I'm using Transmac and i'm making a folder in the library part of the .iso and adding the .kext there. I also found in the Library an Extensions.mkext and I copied some of the .kext files in there. I think you need a file in the extensions.mkext but it will not come up again.

Incase you didn't want to look to see what .kext are in the download, you don't have to. Here are all the files (case sensetive) that are in the download.

 

The .kext I am using is: (I just picked out anything with ATA and what looked very important)
