XBMC does not detect SSD
#1
Hello,

i own a ION 330 HT and replaced the sata drive by a 8GB SSD from transcend.


I am able to install the so called "xbmcfreak" image (RC1) but not the image directly from XBMC itselve.

The installer does not detect my drive but it installs perfectly onto a 4 GB usb key.


Any idea? Already tried the IDE and AHCI mode... makes no difference.


Happy new year!

Whatever that image is, it's not ours and not supported here.

No I don't want support on his image, i need some help/info on the xbmc-live image.


As stated above, i'm running on usb stick now with xbmc-image. But prefer to run on ssd drive.


Using asrock ion 330 ht.


All i get is the installer offering me to install on i-scsi.

Like this message.


Thx

I figured that i'm able to install with the BETA1 image but that's the last image that detected my transcend 8 GB device.

I am having the exact same problem as godfather007. I get the screen here: Image

I am trying to install it to a PC with a Intel motherboard and a SATA hard drive plugged into SATA port 0. Very basic.
The install worked great with 9.04.1 Live CD. Anyone got a solution?

Just to add:

i'm trying to run xbmc from a TS8GSSD25S-S

Which, like screenshot above, does not get detected.

In the beta 1 it does get detected. (skip the mentioned xbmcfreak image, i checked with the xbmc.org-images).

It's like the driver does not trigger the devices well.


Could do a seperate ubuntu install on it...

Big Grin 
just downloaded beta1 to freshly install.

The setup says: "detected sata-raid devices; shall i enable them?"

Answer:

YES ends up with no SSD
NO ends up with SSD.


Going to try to pkg update.


Any hints to look for while updating drivers etc?

I had this same problem and it turns out it's because the ssd used to be part of a raid set so had some metadata left on it..
