Comment 3 for bug 403385

Karl,

Basically, I don't meet any problem during Ubuntu 9.04.
I just want to have VIA's next storage driver, but same Device ID was used by sata_via.
It caused me failed to load the new driver with default kernel of Ubuntu 9.04.
It should be OK if I rebuild the sata_via as module or disabled.

I'm not sure what kind installation problem you met.
Just email to me, I would be gald to help you if I could. :)

BRs,
Joseph

Hello. I would really like to know the answer to this, too. I am
currently working with MSI tech support and I believe the sata_via
kernel module is also causing me nightmares to install Linux. I can't
find a distribution that works anymore with my motherboard Master2 FAR.
Thanks in advance! -Karl

Bug description:
Hi,

I met a problem during Ubuntu 9.04 installation.
As we know, there are many drirver modules were built-in kenel to shorten the boot time.
Now, the problem I met is I would like to load the updated driver from driver updated CD and disable the built-in driver modules.
I tried several boot parameters, but didn't work.
for example:
  sata_via.sata_via=no_probe (returns me "unknown boot parameter")
  sata_via=0 (or sata_via=noprobe)
  sata_via.blacklist=yes (this should work if sata_via was built as module)
  sata_via=none (or sata_via.sata_via=none)
Any boot parameter to let me to disable the built-in driver module during ubuntu 9.04 installation?
Thanks in advanced.

BRs,
Joseph
