I have a Supermicro motherboard H8DAR-T with this Marvell controller on
it. It boots just fine off a SATA drive (a single drive, no array
configuration). You need the stock sata_mv driver. It is already in the
kernel, and the etch netinst disk. However it isn't in the initramfs, so
you have to change that per my earlier posting.
