My Laptop (HP TX2100) has problems loading a lot of the features on UBCD. None of the bootdisks work and on next to all of them, it hangs after displaying this message:
The only hint i found was this tread, which states that the problem is related to the SATA drives, and advices to emulate IDE on the SATA channels, which my BIOS does not support (and no, there's no update )-: ).Code: Select all

Since the problem appears to affect all bootdisks loaded by MemDisk, i can only assume it is MemDisk having trouble with the SATA drives. Is there a work-around for this?
I did get PING working in UBCD using this code:
Code: Select all
LABEL Ping
MENU LABEL Ping
KERNEL /custom/ping/kernel
APPEND initrd=/custom/ping/INITRD.GZ
vga=normal
devfs=nomount pxe
ramdisk_size=33000
load_ramdisk=1
init=/linuxrc prompt_ramdisk=0
root=/dev/ram0 rw noapic nolapic lba
combined_mode=libata

(I am running UBCD from a usb stick)
