After my installation, i couldn't find my sata hdd anymore.
During the installation of Gentoo I could see them /dev/sda and /dev/sdb

My gentoo is running on an IDE hdd (/dev/hda), but I want to acces my files of my Windows. But i can't find my sata hdd.

I hava asus A7N8X motherboard with Silicon Image Sata for my sata drives

I already tried this in my Kernel:

1.
ONLY:
ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support ---> <X> Silicon Image chipset support
2.
ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support ---> <X> Silicon Image chipset support
SCSI device support ---> SCSI low-level drivers ---> <X> Silicon Image SATA support
3.
ONLY:
SCSI device support ---> SCSI low-level drivers ---> <X> Silicon Image SATA support
4.
ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support ---> <X> Silicon Image chipset support
SCSI device support ---> SCSI low-level drivers ---> <X> Silicon Image SATA support
<X> Silicon Image 3124/3132 SATA support

in my dmesg I get this:

I have an adaptec AHA2940 UW and one SATA Hard Drive.

Both are working well and by checking your options, I think you miss some options :
ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL Support -> Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk support -> SCSI emulation support
SCSI Device support -> SCSI device support -> SCSI disk support
SCSI Device support -> SCSI device support -> SCSI generic support
SCSI Device support -> SCSI device support -> Probe all LUNs on each SCSI device (I don't think it's mandatory for SCSI emulation, but if it doesn't work, try it)
SCSI Device support -> SCSI device support -> SCSI Transport -> Parallel SCSI (I don't think it's mandatory for SCSI emulation, but if it doesn't work, try it)

Hope it helps
