Yes, but for the 40 hours that I was trying to get this machine
to boot, *.redhat.com was on the road to its new home so :P

Yes, the no_probe biz is the key.  The boot disk I had didn't
work even when I provided this option.  Not quite sure why, I
just know that version 5.1.6 of the driver worked and 5.1.2
didn't.  I could investigate it further if you like.
