Post subject:  Question About "intelfix"

I accidentally posted this question over in "Tip and Hints". I know that was not the right place, so I am re-posting over here. (NOTE to Moderator: Go ahead and delete the thread from the other forum, thanks)

I have a pretty new system with intel chipset 965GM and ICH8M. It is also running a SATA drive. When I try to boot the R5F27 CD with "intelfix", it fails but the interesting thing is it detects the hard drive as "hde". I f I do a regular boot (without intelfix), It detects the drive as "sda" (As I expected) and installs without a hitch.

What am I missing if I don't use intelfix? How to I get the Intel video driver loaded? (I just edited the xorg.conf file and changed the device to "intel" and "i810" [it didn't like either one])

I tried booting with "tv intelfix" and it seemed to work (detected sda). Does that mean it did not see the "intelfix" option?

Any ideas would be most welcome.
