SATA man page was changed. The statement saying that the boot in is not supported was removed. Booting from SATA devices controlled by the SATA framework is supported.

Except that those are actually driven using the compat.
mode; the SATA framework doesn't come in to play on the
x2100.

However, the x4500 (Thumper) does use the SATA framework,
and boots fine :-).  Given that the boot archive is loaded
via grub, I'm not sure what the issues could be w/ booting.
