problems installing etch: no HD detected

Hi!

I need to install etch in a notebook which has MS-Vista installed. I have shrinked the HD (using diskpart from inside Vista) in order to get room for etch. I am using the etch netinstall cd, and the gui-expert mode with the following parameters: "acpi=off pnpbios=off noapic noapm" (I need these parameters in order to boot the Knoppix live CD, so, I guess the same are need for etch). Everything is going fine until the stage where the HD is detected: the etch installer doesn't detect any HD...
The installed HD is a Western Diginal Scorpio HD (WD800BEVS), using the SATA port 1. I wonder if I need any special module to be loaded during the installation...
Any help will be very welcome.

Regards

Marcelo
