> If you have an Intel S5000PAL based mainboard, you might hit this issue.

Hello.  I'm replying to myself since I didn't get a copy of Bernard's reply
but I saw it in the archives.

I checked systemimager-x86_64boot-standard-3.8.0-1.noarch.rpm, and the
initrd within has this for pci-26.lst:

   80862681 unknown  ahci  631xESB/632xESB SATA Storage Controller AHCI

So in other words, it isn't fixed there as far as I can tell.

Our patch does this:

-       80862681        unknown ahci    631xESB/632xESB SATA Storage Controller 
AHCI
+       80862681        ide     ahci    631xESB/632xESB SATA Storage Controller 
AHCI

Please note that I checked only by inspection.  

Hope this helps!

Erik
