It would be a stupid solution nevertheless.

(We also don't "select EXT3".)

It's not the prettiest solution, but it would reduce the number of "support incidents." And, after all, reducing the number of support incidents is the goal of usability.

Not selecting EXT3 is a little more understandable, because there are many options -- cramfs, xfs, reiserfs, etc, depending on target. However, the number of people who DO want SATA support but DO NOT want SD block device support is... uh.. anyone?

Solving the problem bigger and better, by factoring "SD" into a mid-level menu, and maybe calling it something non-SCSI, would probably be even better. And even more work.

OK, I'll go hide now and try not to fan any flames. And thanks again to Andi for nailing my problem right away!

Cheers,
