Problems with Sandpoint and IDE access

Hi,

I am using Montavista 2.4.2_hhl20 with a Sanpoint (8240) board and I am
trying to add a hard disk on the IDE interface. I include the IDE driver
in my kernel and I boot using an ethernet board. The driver seems to be
correctly initialized but when I try to access the hard disk I always
got the same error message

sh-2.03# fdisk /dev/hda

Unable to open /dev/hda
sh-2.03#

Any idea ?

Thanks for your help.

Claire
