Hi,

I have experienced the same regression since 6.2 was branched on an ASUS 
amd64 Vintage-PE1 box.

I'm sure I reported this to the list around 4th December 2006.

My workaround was to install another SATA controller in the PCI-e slot 
and use that instead for the root disk. I think CURRENT also suffers 
from this problem. I think the last release which worked OK was 6.1.

BMS
