@Andy- The tests I did were mainly with the mainline kernel. I got the same issues I had with the (-generic) kernels.
Two more updates here:
2.6.29.4 - SRST failed
2.6.30 - SRST failed
Still not fixed in 2.6.30, obviously. I think (in 2.6.29.4) my kernel sees my drive as an sda/sdb device. It doesn't work either way, unfortunately. I think the root of the issue is the kernel not being able to softreset the hard drive, which eventually results in a timeout and the kernel doing _something_ to manage to reset the HD and eventually boot the system.
