Title: [vmware] SATA Support
Post by: qqmelo on July 20, 2010, 11:05:59 PM

Hi all:

I would try to install tc linux, on my vmware, on sata disk. But, when I run cfdisk or fdisk, I can't see any sata disk. I was looking in the forum, and I saw that there aren't sata support in the kernel... Should I recompile the kernel to get sata support?... if the reply is yes, Where can I get the config for the sata support?

Thanks in advance...

PS: Sorry for my english.

Do you mean SCSI? We do have fairly complete sata support.

If on 2.x, use vm-scsi-2.6.29.1.tcz, if on 3.x, scsi-2.6.33.3-tinycore.tcz.

I have tried with that module, and all worked fine!. I could Install in my vmware tinycore linux!.

then, I could write a little Dialog Installer, for automation install :).

Is there a 2.6.33.3 TCZ file for SATA driver support?

Thanks,

SCSI, not sata. See the scsi extension.
