[G4] Update on Serial ATA PCI Card for G4

[Richard M. Kriss]

I am sorry to have to report that the third try was no joy. The
brand new SIIG Serial ATA PCI-M Card card showed up today.

As noted on the web page this card is for a Mac.

The installation was no bid deal and it was interfaced to a brand new
Seagate 80 GB SATA drive in a G4 AGP with a 1Gig processor card.

The new SATA drive did not show up on the desktop and could not be
found by the OSX 10.4 Disk Utility.  I double checked the connections
and even put the card in a different PCI slot.

I sent a help request to SIIG but they have not responded.  Any suggestions
on how to wake up a SATA drive will be appreciate.  This simple mod
has turned into the project from hell.

Help!!!
