Dell Optiplex 390 on DSM 6.2 Loader 1.03b

[hemant]

Hi,

 

As per Topic i'm trying gto install DSM 6.2 with Loader 1.0.3b Legacy/CSM on my Dell Optiplex 390 I5-2500S.

I have attached an SSD drive as test to the Internal port 1-4.

After booting I get "Hard drive" not detected.  (Vid/Pid etc are all o.k.)

Unfortunately there is no ACHI option. looks like the board emulates SATA using the IDE.

 

Booting Linux (Red pil)

 

I do see the SSD Drive and LSPCI give me the following:

00:1f.2 IDE Interface: Intel Corp 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 4 port SATA IDE Controller (rev 04)
00:1f.4 IDE Interface: Intel Corp 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 2 port SATA IDE Controller (rev 04)
 

Is there any fix for this or is the controller not supported anymore with the loader? I tried extra.lmz but issue stays the same.

 

What would be the best option?

 

Cheers,

Hemant

Hi,

 

Just an update.

 

I have installed DS3615xs load 1.02b (MBR)  DSM 6.1.7 and this seems work I can see both the raildcontroller and the internal disks attached to the mainboard.

So between DSM 6.1.7 and 6.2.x something has been changed to support the internal SATA, wondering what as changed and how to solve this so I can move to 6.2.x or even 7.x.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Hemant
