Partitioning Woes

[Meier, David J]

Odd that this would be a chipset issue as I've had no problems with
Gentoo, Mandrake (10 & 10.1), Fedora, Arch and Slack.  I am 99.9%
certain it's the official - I will verify once more though.

Unfortunately I cannot disable SATA via BIOS or I would have tried that
avenue... :(

http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=KT6_Delta-FIS2R

The mobo is an MSI KT6 Delta-FIS2R.  VIA KT600 on the north and VIA
VT8237 on the south, rather common.

Any help is appreciated!
