Please check whether there's a matching Trac ticket and create a new one, if there isn't. Also describe your problem more precisely. From how I understand your short description you actually get to the installer -- which means that Haiku basically boots OK -- but no hard disk is recognized (you did start Drive Setup, right?). Without further information I would say that not being able to boot into live mode sounds like another problem (at least I don't see how it is related to the hard disk recognition issue). What are the exact symptoms? If possible also attach a syslog to the ticket. CU, Ingo
