Comment 48 for bug 75681

I guess I'll give it a shot, but the fact that linux does not rely on the
BIOS for SATA or IDE detection and initialization, and the fact that
different versions of software have given me differing results would suggest
your problem might be different, maybe power related (spinup)?

I cannot draw on any pas experience with my system, as edgy did not support
my SATA. I have a QX6700 on a Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, so things are pretty
new.
