[NTLUG:Discuss] Lost drive

[Michael Barnes]

I've got an old ftp server running SLES 9.  I needed more drive space,
so I added a SIIG SATA PCI card and a 500G Barracuda drive.  It's been
perking along happy as a clam until this morning when suddenly it
doesn't see the drive.  I put the card and the drive in another
machine and they work fine.  I put a new card and a new drive in and
it still doesn't recognize them.  When it boots up, the POST splashes
the card and the drive.  fdisk -l /dev/sdb returns nothing.

Any ideas on other things to check?  At first, it wouldn't even boot
until I commented out the drive mounting in fstsab.

Thanks,
Michael
