Most likely it is a kernel support problem. I have been handling the g4l project, and ran into a similar problem. The older kernel 2.6.15.6 would support some SATA configurations that later kernels would not support. Eventually working with the git kernels, I was able to get newer kernels that would once again support the controllers.

I do include udpcast as a receive option on the menu of G4L, since its compatible with images created by udpcast. There are copies of both the udp-sender and udp-reciever programs on the cd. You might want to boot from the g4l cd, and see if it recognizes the drives and controller.

ftp://amd64gcc.dyndns.org/g4l22beta-01-10-2007p.iso

After the in boot, you would select the latest kernel by endering bzImage20p That is the latest one on that image, thou I have another image that has two additional git kernels that came out after the 1/10/07. After it loads and boots to the command prompt, you could check if it sees the drives. cat /proc/partitions

I use the g4l to make the images on my ftp server, and then generally use the udpcast to image all the machines in my computer labs at the college.

Hello everybody,

cloning ata-disks worked beautifully with udp-cast --- thank you very much! My problems started when I tried to clone machines using sata-disks. According to the mainboard documentation a VIA-controller is used for sata-disks on the third and fourth ide-device. But no matter which optional sata-drivers I tried to include in udpast - I tried the VIA-, Intel, and Marvell-drivers - udpcast can't autodetect my disk and I can't figure out what to input as a device in the 'other' section. Whatever I enter (I tried hda and sda) is followed by a message that 'no such device' is present. I'm stuck! I hope I've provide enough information to be useful. Many thanks in advance!
