Subject: SATA controller

Hello Openwall,

Many thanks for desire to help!!
I shall result the description of installation of drivers for the
controller which goes with MB - ASUS P4P800-E Deluxe.

INSTALLATION
============
        Extract the contents of the ZIP file on to a formatted floppy disk.
        (ZIP file can be extracted by `WinZIP' in windows or `unzip' in linux)
        Label the disk "SATA150 Driver Disk".
2.1 To install the SATA150 Series Linux Driver into an EXISTING SYSTEM:

    1.) Boot linux system and login as root.
    2.) Insert SATA150 Driver Disk for install SATA150 Driver 
        by issuing commands :
        # mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
        # cd /mnt/floppy
        # sh install    (Answer Yes/No when inquire setup configuration)
        You can answer Yes to load SATA150 driver when linux booting everytime.
        # cd ..
        # umount /dev/fd0

# cat install
#!/bin/sh

2.2 To install the SATA150 Series Linux Driver into a NEW SYSTEM

    1.) Start the RedHat Linux Installation with CD ROM booting.
    2.) At the "Welcome to Red Hat linux ..." installation screen, a prompt
        labeled "boot:" will appear at the bottom of the screen.
    3.) Please type "expert" (without quotations) at the "boot:" prompt, then
        press the enter key.
    4.) At the "Devices" dialog box, insert the SATA150 Driver Disk in the 
        floppy drive and then select "OK" or "Yes".
    5.) Continue with the installation as normal.
    6.) When installation is at the "Congratulations" menu (final step).
            a.) Press Ctrl-Alt-F2 to swtich screen. 
            b.) Insert the SATA150 Driver Disk floppy, issue commands to load 
                SATA150 driver.
                # umount /tmp/fd0     (this command may fail, ignore it)
                # chroot /mnt/sysimage
                # mount /dev/fd0 /mnt
                # cd /mnt

                # cd /
                # umount /mnt
                # exit
            c.) Please Press Ctrl-Alt-F7 and click "Exit" button to finish 
                installation.
