Hi,
         I turned it on, but still no luck. Attached is the verbose 
dmesg.boot.  I wonder if the extra controller is being mis-identified 
as being PATA ? As far as I can tell, there are no legacy PATA 
connectors on the board

Yet
atapci0: <Marvell 88SX6121 UDMA133 controller> port 
0x2018-0x201f,0x2024-0x2027,0x2010-0x2017,0x2020-0x2023,0x2000-0x200f 
mem 0xe1100000-0xe11003ff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci6

implies its a PATA device ?
