    Hardy not detecting hard drive

    I've got 3 hard drives, 2 sata and 1 ide, but hardy wont detect the ide. Works fine in gutsy. I did sudo fdisk -l and got this:

    Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
    Disk identifier: 0x0009e2d4

    /dev/sda5 60045 60801 6080571 82 Linux swap / Solaris

    Disk /dev/sdb: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
    255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
    Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

    /dev/sdb5 29645 30401 6080571 82 Linux swap / Solaris
    in hardy, but in gutsy it shows this:

    I tried to get it to show up by putting it in fstab by uuid, but no joy. Also, when I look in dev/disk I only see the two disks it's reporting, while in gutsy all three show up. Any thoughts?

    Re: Hardy not detecting hard drive

    Ok, a little more info. I don't know if this is helpful or not, I'm over my head with this.

    Results of lspci -v shows same thing for both hardy and gutsy:

    Disregard the space in the size field, it's there to keep it from changing the font size.

    I'd like to use HH, it's the first one to detect and configure my onboard audio, and I'd like to free up the slot the sound card is using. But this is a deal breaker, I need access to that drive.
