Default SATA Drive support for Linux....!


Could anyone please tell me which version of Linux supports SATA Hard Disk.. as I have a 120 GB SATA HDD on my System and a 80 GB IDE HDD... I have windows installed on my SATA and The IDE 80 GB has two Partitions.. one for Linux and the other for FAT32...
I Have Mandrake 10.1 installed on my IDE Disk... on the Linux partition...
In the Linux System.. in the folder /mnt/windows/...
It shows all the Fat 32 disks... (This is a property of Mandrake 10.1)
Now in this folder it is only showing the FAT 32 partitions on my IDE HDD and not the partitions on my SATA disk....
so pls send me the solutions to my problem pls... i need'em urgently..
I shall be grateful to you...

Default

All versions of linux support sata drives.
To see the new sata disk partitions make one dir per partition say
/mnt/sata_disk1
/mnt/sata_disk2

and them use mount -t /vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/sata_disk1
and so on if your partitions are ntfs then install the ntfs driver and do the same except change the file type.
To make these permanant add the details to /etc/fstab
