Hi guys, im a total noob and i appreciate all the help i can get.
im running 8.10 and Im having trouble finding my IDE hard drive. I have 1xsata drive with windows on it, as well as a dvd drive and IDE hard drive on the same cable.
Ubuntu can recognise my main sata hard drive with windows on it, but it cant recognise the IDE (with no OS installed), HOWEVER this is the hard drive where ubuntu was installed, and currently running from. this is my sudo fdisk -l output:
sudo fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders
