SATA chipset Sil 3132

Hi all, I've recently acquired some more hard drives and I just plugged one in to the secondary SATA ports on my motherboard for the first time. However, my Gentoo box isn't seeing it. I have an Abit AN8-32X motherboard (the other drives are on the Nvidia SATAII controller). For info about the board, go here: http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews/an8-32x/ In make menuconfig (from the kernel I am running right now (2.6.18)): <*> Silicon Image chipset support My BIOS lists a drive in the Sil SATA display during IDE/SATA scanning. I have swapped the drive to the other controller to see if it is a hardware problem with the drive. It shows up in LSPCI, but it doesn't show up in fdisk -l. glamdring dev # lspci 00:00.0 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:00.1 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 0 (rev a2) 00:00.2 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 1 (rev a2) 00:00.3 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 5 (rev a2) 00:00.4 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 4 (rev a2) 00:00.5 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Host Bridge (rev a2) 00:00.6 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 3 (rev a2) 00:00.7 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation C51 Memory Controller 2 (rev a2) 00:02.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:03.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:04.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation C51 PCI Express Bridge (rev a1) 00:09.0 Memory controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 Memory Controller (rev a4) 00:0a.0 ISA bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 ISA Bridge (rev a4) 00:0a.1 SMBus: nVidia Corporation CK804 SMBus (rev a2) 00:0b.0 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 USB Controller (rev a2) 00:0b.1 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 USB Controller (rev a4) 00:0d.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev a2) 00:0f.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation CK804 IDE (rev f3) 00:10.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation CK804 Serial ATA Controller (rev f3) <====== works fine 00:11.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation CK804 Serial ATA Controller (rev f3) <====== works fine 00:12.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 PCI Bridge (rev a2) 00:13.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3) 00:14.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 PCIE Bridge (rev a3) 00:15.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 PCIE Bridge (rev a3) 00:16.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 PCIE Bridge (rev a3) 00:17.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 PCIE Bridge (rev a3) 00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 01:00.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc.
