If he's going IDE, wouldn't it be possible to have SRM boot from a smaller
drive hooked to the onboard IDE, and then have most of the system reside
on a larger IDE drive hooked to a faster controller?

I haven't done IDE on any of my Alphas, (and in fact I've never even
played with a PWS) so maybe there's something I'm overlooking.
