FUA?
Right now, I'm running the latest FC3 errata kernel (2.6.12-1.1381_FC3) on
this FC5 system. Needless to say that things aren't smooth, especially
since udev really doesn't like that kernel.

I've tried the FC5 kernel, the latest FC4 update kernel the latest FC5
testing update kernel and the FC development kernel, and none have sata_nv
nor sata_sil output anything in the kernel messages, as if the devices
weren't there! OTOH, the FC3 kernel sees all of the 8 (in total) sata
ports, and the drive works great.

Something seems to have happened between 2.6.12 and 2.6.15 regarding
nForce4 chipsets, since even the parallel ata doesn't work properly *sigh*.
