Has anyone successfully done this? Can you enlighten me
about the appropriate magic....  ???

I found the old PR about the ASUS A7V and it seems to have been fixed in
4.2R....  The install works fine... the drivers find the controller... the
install seems to work on the new disks hanging of the ATA100.
The boot loader finds the kernel on ad4 and then it craps out saying it
can't load the root partition....

Any pointers?

I'll try moving the root partition disk to the ordinary IDE tomorrow but this
seems like a waste of a good fast disk...

thanks,
