I too have been fighting through my primary system upgrade which involves
 ICH, big SATA, >32GB NTFS. I evaluated and gave up on:
  o Gentoo/portage
  o FC4,6/yum (bad DVD from ...)
have selected Ubuntu 7.04 / apt-get, which does works great on my x86-64 laptop.

Ubuntu was booting until I tried to move to a new kernel (mainly to evaluate VMware
or win4lin or wine ) since win2k won't boot from /dev/sda2). Booting from my old
system on /dev/hda I can see the NTFS contents on either linux or win2k. The only
windows app I care about anymore is Quicken & TurboTax.

linux-2.6.20.2 doesn't work either after a few reboots, make menuconfig to get
a libata.ko module installed.

How/where can I get apt-get to roll back to 2.6.20-15-generic ?
(I do have the orginal grub selection but no kernel source) or
where can I ftp the linux-source-2.6.20-15-generic ?

<wine>
Would be really nice to have a bunch of working .config.ECS848P-version & files
for other tested MBs around for download....the /boot/config.orginal files, with most
all the modules turned on takes forever to build
</wine>

thanks,
