I have just borrowed a brand new Pentium 4 3.6 GHz machine from the
office, intending to use it as an open source demonstration machine.

To my surprise, it has no IDE disk, only a SATA drive, which I have not
used before personally.

Fedora Core 1 and Suse Enterprise Server completely failed to install,
complaining about "no disk drive".

FreeBSD 5.3 installed perfectly, and runs like the wind!  Hats off again
to the FreeBSD team.
