    Hi All,

    I tried installing MorphOS 3.17 on a PowerMac G5 (June 2004) and MorphOS boots just fine from the CD but it does not detect any of the two installed SATA HDDs

    Configuration:

    PowerMac7,3 EMC:1969C
    CPU: Dual 2.0GHz 970fx
    Video: Radeon 9600
    RAM: 8 GB (8x1GB)
    HDDs: 2x Maxtor 7Y250M0 250GB (Apple-branded)
    PCI-X add-on: Intel 82564 Gigabit Ethernet (non-Apple)
    Airport Extreme

    All utilities I could find in the live-CD MorphOS image are only showing CD0: as the single storage device present.

    One of the HDDs in the G5 has multiple partitions with Mac OS X versions 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 and all of them boot and work just fine, detecting both HDDs.

    I am a newbie on MorphOS (and any other Amiga-related things) so if this is a simple/common issue, I am sorry and please provide me with a link to the FM so I can RTFM.

    Thank you very much !
