[Ani-users] ANI Boots on SATA?

[Maurice L. <Mau...@co...>]

hi to all

i use ANI-1.1.1 .

I recently had  a problem at PXE bootime, with PCs having SATA disks.
The PC begin to boot then stops and can not continue

I would want to know if the vmlinuz kernel embedded in the tftpboot 
directory supports SATA disks?

is there any people in the list who succeed to  boot ANI via PXE from a 
PC with SATA disks?


thanks for your informations or solutions

Hi Maurice,

S-ATA is still not embedded in ANI because of some inconsistencies in 
the 2.4 kernel. Nevertheless it should be no problem to add the S-AATA 
modules by yourself.
A workaround is to enable IDE-compatibility in the BIOS settings.

bad news! it is a pity really , it was really useful
i invested times to make it works with nlite, slipstreamed hotfixes...

what is your advise? to continue to use ANI or to change for another=20
"unattended" solution?

any chance to make it live again by another team?

according to you, how much people is there in the ani-user list which=20
really use it?
