Can you point me to some documentation which describes how
the sd* drives are provisioned?  That is, in a system with
only PATA drives (IDE), the primary master which was HDA
will be SDA.  What is supposed to happen on a system with 
both PATA and SATA?  
Maybe throw in a SCSI card and a USB drive for good measure.
