Hi,
Iam using DSL-3.0.1. It is unable to detect sata drives. Probably there is problem with ata_piix. Is it suported?

SATA support is not included in DSL. (v3 uses the 2.4.26 kernel)
See v 2.1b[?] (a few older versions uses the 2.4.31 kernel), or DSL-N (2.6.x) - these should work.

Thanks for reply! Unfortunately, version 2.1 lacks a lot of functionalities. I have already tried DSL-N, but it is unstable and saving configuration didn't worked for me.
Is there any way how to obtain additional modules? For example package with more of them similar to modules_cut.tar.gz for 2.4.31 kernel?

Heh, most of my DSL machines still use an older build of DSL. I haven't gotten around to really try out DSL-N yet, though you could probably find some support in their forums.

Afaik SATA support was slightly introduced in 2.4.26, but the stable/current modules were in 2.4.27.
