Description Dieter Zuleger 2005-10-23 13:45:04 UTC
My system specs:
Laptop with SIS645DX chipset.
During the Installation from SuSE 10.0 DVD, I get the message: 
"Error
No hard disks were found ...".
By pressing "Alt+F4" during the early stage of booting, I can observe these
kernel messages:
insmod sis5513 ...
hda: {DriveSeek Complete Error}
hda: {DriveStatus Error}
hda: wcach flush failed
ide: failed opcode was Oxea
...
The boot option "insmod=ide-generic brokenmodules=sis5513" results also in the
message "no hard disks were found2 (this works for SuSE 9.3). The same applies
to "acpi=off", Safe Settings etc.
Is there a way to install SuSE 10.0 on this laptop?

Reopen for 10.1 if the bug still exists.
