Hi!
I have one computer which has two partitions per disk.
This partition is seen by a 2.4.xx kernel (knoppix) but
not by a 2.6.0t7 kernel.
When booting the knoppix, dmesg says:
hda: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=155061/16/63
hdc: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=155061/16/63
ide-cd: passing drive hde to ide-scsi emulation.
Partition check:
hda: [PTBL] [9729/255/63] hda1 hda2
hdc: [PTBL] [9729/255/63] hdc1 hdc2
But the 2.6.0t7 does not see the partition table.
Other disks are properly recognized, so it seems to
be a problem with [PTBL] and 2.6 ...
Any clues ?

The [PTBL] part just says that this 2.4 kernel first concluded to
a 155061/16/63 geometry but then saw the partition table and
changed it mind to 9729/255/63.
It is unrelated to partition recognition.
Check that your kernel was compiled without CONFIG_PARTITION_ADVANCED,
or, in case you selected advanced, has CONFIG_MSDOS_PARTITION selected.
If it is something else, come back (and show fdisk output).

Yes, I have CONFIG_PARTITION_ADVANCED, CONFIG_MSDOS_PARTITION and also LDM
partitions support.
I've attached a boot log.
In fact it seems that it's not a partitions problem but a disk
detection problem: the IDE controller is detected but not the disks...
The server is an HP-DL320 with integrated RAID IDE.

OK - in that case I can refer you to Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz,
our IDE maintainer.

I can't find it.

I've just found where the problem came from !
In fact I have more that one IDE controler on this PC,
and my 2.6 kernel was not compiled for supporting this IDE
raid chipset (CMD649).
Sorry for wasting your time.
Cheers,
