Some more information about your machine might help. Like, is this SATA OR IDE? Are you logged in as root? Does the partition appear if you do an fdisk -l? I can understand you not being able to set the drive as master if it is the only drive on the channel. Some drives require a 2nd drive on the channel to be master. Otherwise you can just not have any jumper at all and it will default to master (similar but not the same as cable select). -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
