SAMSUNG HD502IJ ATA Device
and my burner is allso sata cabeld
iv turned the partition active made AHCI and all the settup needed but i still get Still waiting for root device and i cant get to boot screen
i have only one hard drive of 500G iv made a partition which isnt formatted to any kind of file setup and i made it active now
at the boot up i put rd=disk0s3 and any kind of setting iv tried still led to "Still Waiting For Root Device"
