SATA errors linger in test2

Nope! Can't get FC test2 first booting at all on either kernel. Install was 
painless though.

I'll compile a vanilla kernel using the latest 2.6 from kernel.org on 
another machine and use the config file from test2. I'll try and drop that 
into my system and see what it does.

I haven't tried, but when I had a P4 2.4A CPU in the same hardware (I only 
swapped the CPU recently) FC1 had the same problem. It's definitely SATA 
RAID related because I can get the machine to boot if I just unplug the 
drives from the RAID controller on the motherboard. Still, I don't feel that 
I should have to open my case everytime I want to boot into FC.

Also with the acpi options..... these are directives that I put into GRUB 
before booting, right? I've done this before in LILO, but I'm not sure how 
it works out in GRUB.
