View 9 RepliesAfter many hours trying to install Ubuntu(netinstall-64bit) i can not find any solution to get it working. I set-up via KVM and virtual device. Installation gives me error "No disk drive detected" when trying to detect discs/hardware. Someone told me i have to load megasr-source_13.13.1021.2009-1_all.deb by virtual-usb. It should include drivers for the controller not delivered by ubuntu-setup. After that I got to next setup-step partitioning, but it only shows me an IPMI-device which is either the virtual usb or cd i suppose.
System is one week old and I got it with pre-installed debian64bit which is working fine. So i dont think its hardware causing this.

I'm having problem in installing debian 7.5.0 on Dell Power Edge R 470 1U Rack Server ( Not Sure If am using RAID 1 ) whereby the hard drive is not detected. This server is running 2 Proc/2x1.2 SAS HDD . The installation went ok until i reached into partition section whereby the drives is not there to be selected , throwing an error " No disk drive detected , Driver needed fro your disk drive "
I've tried to use debian-7.8.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso
My server details:

I installed Debian on my PC with a Acer Stock motherboard (xc600) with amd64 and after the installation finished it told me to remove my installation media and reboot. After reboot I was returned this message ' ERROR: No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed.'. I have verified with gparted using mint live OS that I have Debian installed on my system.
I got believes that this may have be caused by a broken grub or I need to configure something I don't know how in BIOS.
I will update the topic later..
My installation media was a USB 2.0 flashdrive with a Debian 8.2 Jessie Installer and 9 different Linux distros. I have installed Debian multiple times before on my laptop and never had this problem so I know how to go through the installation process and set the partitions.
I have a usb flash drive that is working/formatted etc however it's not detected after a reboot not even in lsusb, I have to physically remove and reinsert it, any ideas what could be wrong?

However, when I insert it into the USB slot, the light on the drive glows, but I'm unable to mount the drive, neither does ubuntu detect it.I disconnected the flash drive, and then run `dmesg | tail`.

am using the community build of Ubuntu 9.10, I have an old as dirt Power Macintosh G3 Blue And White, and I can't get it to install. I tried the live CD first of course, and now the alternate. Both tell me that no disk drives detected, even though Mac OS 9, X, and Fedora all detect both my 40gb seagate, my 120gb seagate, and my 120gb maxtor.I am trying to get this running with some sort of linux for a school project.What is happening is it asks me what driver to use, and if I select the bottom option that it is none of the above, it asks me to load a driver from a USB flash drive, which I don't know what driver to use. They are all standard IDE devices hooked into the built in bus. I obviously can't move past this point.

When I first got it, I started out running Ubuntu 5.10 way back in 2005. I was thinking of downloading and burning 6.06, and upgrading from there.
I Installed Ubuntu 9.04 with XP theme. Then I installed Picasa and I have pictures on a 2nd hard disk. When I restart the PC Picasa doesn't see the 2nd drive. The 2nd HDD is mounted under /media/disk and clicking on the "My computer" icon (this is XP theme), I see the 2nd hdd. Now, I have to add this disk to Picasa again for it to scan the pictures. I don't want to do this on a regular basis.

I am installing Ubuntu 10.04 on my new Mac Mini. It has 2 500GB hard-drives, and I have created a partition for Ubuntu. During installation, however, Ubuntu is not able to detect my disk drive, neither my network interface. So I am not able to 'Partition Disks' which is part of Ubuntu installation. Did any of you encounter this problem? Any solutions or workarounds? Should I setup my disks in anyway before installation or use boot args?

All of my computers are second-hand (except 1 laptop but it doesn't count) and I see in my Dell 4600 there are 2 SATA connectors on the motherboard. I picked up a 250 GB SATA hard disk and cables recently and tried plugging it in but the system doesn't see it. I even disconnected all other disks to make sure there wasn't a conflict (master/slave) issue going on but the system still does not see it.
The disk is vibrating so I assume it is getting juice and is spinning. Is there a setting or something I have to do to tell the system to access the SATA? Do I have to look at RAID settings if there is only 1 SATA disk? Can I not have a SATA disk and an ATA disk plugged in at the same time? I want to try and determine if the disk is bad, or is it PEBKAC!
I have three drives: 2x320 and 1x1.5TB. On one of the 320's I have Ubuntu and on the other I have Win7. The 1.5TB drive is NTFS and I can access it from within windows no problem.
The problem is that Ubuntu does not see it at all. In Gparted it does not show up in the drop down list on the top right. In Disk Utility it doesn't show up either.
The hard disk is seen in the BIOS.
The partitions on it are accessible via the Places Menu on the Lucid Live CD.
It's just when I try to install, nothing is detected in Step 4 of 8, "Prepare Partitions".
An old 80GB IDE disk, on the other hand is seen by the partitioner.
I am not using RAID and it is not enabled in the BIOS.
I tried to change my /home to another partition, but after reboot I get an error saying the disk /home could not be mounted..fstab:Quote:

We are using Ubuntu 10.04LTS server on Vmware Vsphere estate. We are using LVM and have / and /var on separate partitions.
We have been experiencing an odd issue with sda1 always being fsck'd after every reboot. We seem to have traced this to the start/kill scripts in rc0.d and rc6.d. It appears that the reason the disk is not being unmounted is because some of the scripts are never being run because they are prefixed with S. We renamed and reordered the scripts to reflect what we thought should be the correct order - i.e. not halting the system before unmounting disks. System reboots cleanly now.
Before list of rc0.d and rc6.d respectively:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2010-11-18 15:06 K01apache2 -> ../init.d/apache2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2010-11-16 17:03 K01zabbix-agent -> ../init.d/zabbix-agent

basically are we expected to do these changes as part of building new servers for production use? Quite happy to do this but just surprised that this is the default.

I have an IDE disk which fails intermittently. It contains data only, no system files. (The system files are on /dev/sda1). Mostly at boottime the system fails to mount it even though it is listed in /etc/ftab as /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ext2 default 1 0 I want to recover the files on it.
Is it possible to mount it after bootup? Is it necessary to reboot to detect attached disks? If the BIOS fails to detect the disk, is it impossible to mount it thereafter?
system is Slackware 10. Kernel 2.4
I'm using a kingston data traveler. I've only used it on windows before. The drive doesn't get detected automatically so I tried this command mount /dev/sdb ./mnt_point
which gives me a message saying to specify the filesystem type after some googling I found out it probably uses fat32(other types didn't work) But if I try
mount -t fat32 /dev/sdb ./mnt_point it says it doesn't recognize that filesystem type. Anyone got a fix? I wish it were as simple as it is on windows
This is my problem, I want to install debian 5.5 Lenny stable (2.6.26-2-amd64) on our new Dell PowerEdge T610 with a PERC controller H200
but nothing to do, the default Debian installer does not detect it. After more research, the module that I must load is "mpt2sas" and after normaly my hard-drive will be detected I'm going on the Dell site, there are only drivers for RedHat and Suze distribution .. I still try to install rpm packages but without success!

As you can see they now show up as inactive. And for some reason sdi1 and sdh1 are not even listed. What can I do to get them back? To make matters worse I placed some important data on them, and even if I was clever enough to keep an extra copy on another drive, guess which drive that was? So, I need to get them activated as is (at least so I can get the data of them) before I can rebuild them from scratch. I'm running Mandriva 2010.1 and rated tehm using the built in disk partitioner.
