I haven't tried it again but I used the whole drive on install of
fedora originally and again to reinstall, so best guess is its in some
sort of built onto the board mechanism, i'd try it again but my gf
probably wouldn't appreciate me doing that on purpose a second time
just to test a theory. I am pretty sure its built into the MOBO
though.
