changing /etc/fstab is not gonna work since fdisk doesnt find the disk... The only solution will be a patched module indeed, anyone out there who can give a "how to" patch the module? This would be greatly appreciated! Try with this pata_sch.ko module but I won't be able to explain you how to repla...

In case you install the (vanilla, ubuntu 10.10) kernel on the 4 GB flash drive, how exactly do you find your 160G HD? the pata_sch module is loaded, but I cannot find the HD with fdisk, its not in /proc/partitions either. Am I missing something? Do I need other kernel modules? I guess you will need...

Update :
2.6.32-25-fitpc2i available :

I needed to modify pata module because ubuntu only detects master hard drives (currrently SD is master and HD slave, and this is a hardware configuration we cannot change). The modification makes the kernel detects slave HD as well during boot time.

axcoco, Would you mind providing a bash script to take a vanilla 10.04 and bring it up to speed for a fitPC2? I won't work with a batch file as the hard drive won't be detected at boot with the default vanilla on the iso. (Remember that this iso is intended for built-in HD installation, and this is...

did you install ubuntu on hard disk or flash ? hard drive location is (hd1,1)

Btw, I installed it the same way I earlier installed 9.10 where you need to add a new repro and that worked...

Just so you know, axcoco: your iso worked like a charm here, my fit-pc2i now runs under Lucid Lynx Server Edition flawlessly. Just a bit of a problem when trying to install grub - somehow the package wasn't loaded correctly and install into MBR failed. Going back to the installer menu and updating ...

I am running 10.04 om my fit, (regular download with Desktop for Ubuntu and then ran all of install for 9.10 on fit downloads website). You are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010 and supported until April 2013. ...Tim I guess you are running lucid under the old kernel ...

Desktop version is more usefull if you want to go on websites etc..
Server version is rather if you want to build and store websites on it.

But for deskop you should go with ubuntu 9.04
