Hi.

Could anyone tell me which exactly kernel drivers should use to have access to HDD and network card? I was trying to find this information in pdf's, on this forum without success. I'm asking because i don't have physical access to this device and i need to prepare kernel and installation usb stick.

As i read somewhere here, there is only pata controller with sata converter so linux will see "hda" instead of "sda". Am I right?

Regards

Ethernet is,
Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 03)
Kernel module is listed as "r8169"

Wireless is,
Network controller: RaLink RT3090 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe
Kernel module is listed as "rt3090sta"
Mint 9 auto-recognized this as RT2860 (rt2860sta), but I installed rt3090-dkms package instead (but I don't normally use wireless, so I can't vouch for its success)

Hard drive controller is,
IDE interface: Intel Corporation System Controller Hub (SCH Poulsbo) IDE Controller (rev 07) (prog-if 80 [Master])
kernel driver is listed as "pata_sch"
Hard drive volumes are listed as "/dev/sda<n>"

Hope that helps.
