[ltp] X40 upgrade notes (SSD, Ubuntu Precise)

[Helmut Hullen]

Hallo, Henrique,

Du meintest am 17.06.12:

>>> 2. I purchased a PATA 1.8" SSD made by "Kingfast". The Ubuntu

>>> Solution (rather oddly): remove the jumper cap on the drive, so
>>> that, rather than being in "IDE master" mode, it's in "cable
>>> select" mode.

Bingo!
"Cable select" works. But my Transcend SSDs need the jumper horizontal,  
not removed for this case.

About 12 hours wasted for searching in the wrong corner ...

Viele Gruesse!
