This is great news.  See, I told you if I waited long enough, "they"
would fix it.

Thanks for the info, I am downloading the patches now.

Newer kernels support SATA drives.  Since you have the EIDE drive working
you should look at using a 2.6 kernel or a 2.4 kernel with the libata
patches (ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/) to
support the new drive.

Here is an article from August 29th, 2003 which talkes about how to do it.

It should be much more supported now.
