Installation don't detect HDD

#1 Post by paja93 »

Hi, new to this forum, i rarely join to any forum but this time i did. I just can't solve this problem...
currently i have linux lite and windows 7(which i'm not using for a long long time but it's still there).
So i wanted to move to debian and finally remove windows from my disk.
After running the installation when i come to step for detecting disk drive it say "No disk drive was detected. If you know the name of the driver needed by your disk drive, you can select it from the list."
I really don't know why is this happening, everything is okay with hdd. It's not my first time i install or change os. I was always hooping from one distro to another for the last maybe 2 years and never had such a problem.
I booted some other distros too to try to install and i get same problem always, no hdd even if in the bios hdd is detected and when i run live from usb, everything just looks fine. What to do next, how to solve this? Sorry for my poor english :)

What boot. UEFI, legacy? What type of drive. SATA, PATA, NVMe, SCSI?

What is the PCI ID of your SATA controller? You can go to cateee.net and check out what kernel version supports it.

What do you mean by "looks fine" ? Does the live system detect the disk ? What live distribution is it ?
