Boot-problems with new ivy-bridge-computer
Hi!
I have a new computer, yeah! It is an i5-3570K with an ASUS-mainboard with Z77-chipset. So far so good.
I reused my old SATA-harddisks with my current arch-system with it. Everything seems to work fine:
I got the grub-menu, chose the Arch-Linux-entry, the kernel starts over - and could not find the harddisk.
I needed to put MODULES="ahci" into mkinitcpio.conf to solve this issue. The current installation-disc
didn't start, too. (BTW, I switched over to IDE-mode to start and reconfigure the system).
So my system works now, but how do we solve this for future installation-discs and maybe for "normal"
Arch installations. I think, the ahci-driver should load automatically, shouldn't it? Does it make sense
to report a bug for it? Or maybe 2 bugs (kernel and installation disc)? Does somebody have the same
problems?

Guessing that you need to rebuild your kernel images. Follow steps to chroot into the system from a live CD and use mkinitcpio to rebuild them.

Re: Boot-problems with new ivy-bridge-computer
Err, I already did it, the question is how to handle this problem in Arch generally.

It does load automatically. No idea how to help you.
