I installed a very large harddrive today and now everytime I boot I am

I have figured out that I need to
modprobe sata_via

It all boots OK but the modprobe takes a huge amount of time.
Is there a step that I have not done in setting this up? Is there a
quick fix to stop it dropping to the command prompt?

There is a firmware bug at the moment with certain 1.5Tb and possibly
1Tb Seagate HDD's you might want to google around a bit and see if it
applies to you. Although it sounds like you may be experiencing a
different problem.
