Todd, Andy,

I suspect , that South Bridge is Intel ICH6 due to :-
[0.538964] pci 0000:00:1f.0: quirk: region 0800-087f claimed by
ICH6 ACPI/GPIO/TCO
[0.538973] pci 0000:00:1f.0: quirk: region 0880-08bf claimed by ICH6 GPIO

I had CentOS 5.1 running with AHCI driver on Asus P5K-E board
with ICH9R and BIOS,actually,been unable to turn on AHCI.
WinXP SP2 detected SATA Drive without IAStor.sys on that box(!)

Keeping in mind to reduce cost to minimum, i would suggest
any Intel(ASUS,MSI) board with well tested South Bridge
ICH(8,9)R for fairly trustable results.

Personally, i don't trust ICH6 whatever happens on this chipset
in regards of the most recent linux kernels (like 2.6.28).
I would double check openSUSE 11 (11.1) log for ata driver
been loaded during booting up ( suspect "atapiix" been selected)

Boris.

These lines are coming up for me (previously attached on xen-devel as
xenboot.out3)

[ 0.538964] pci 0000:00:1f.0: quirk: region 0800-087f claimed by
ICH6 ACPI/GPIO/TCO
[ 0.538973] pci 0000:00:1f.0: quirk: region 0880-08bf claimed by ICH6 GPIO

What do you make of them?

Cheers,
Todd
