yep, i know. i was offering to test a d-i CD w/ 2.6.26 on this
motherboard just to see if it booted up and recognised the SATA drives.

ok, if you want me to test that it boots on this motherboard, let me
know when d-i has 2.6.26.  i wont do a full install(*), just test that it
recognises the SATA drives etc.


(*) the machine is currently running as a mythtv frontend & backend.
working OK (everything's fine except for one very annoying problem with
echo/stutter on the ALC883 snd_hda_intel built-in sound which i'm still
trying to find a fix for)...but i can take it down for 10-20 minutes to
test d-i when there's a new version with 2.6.26.
