Fedora recognizes hda as sde

[seabird]

Hello everyone,

since fedora wasn't running very stable at first I tried installing centOS and noticed that it detected my hardware differently.......

When installing F10 it recognizes my 160Gb system drive (IDE1) as sde (behind my 4 SATAII drives). CentOS recognized correctly that it is hda.

Can anyone explain why fedora picks it up wrong? It should be IDE1 (first boot prio) hda... right??

There's nothing wrong in Fedora. It just uses the new libata drivers instead of the old IDE driver used by CentOS. There are no hd* devices anymore, all drives are sd* no matter what the physical interface is.

Thanks, that's what I get for trying CentOS.. Went back to fedora allready since centOS didn't even recognize my network interface
