Bug#429622: AMD/ATI SB700 support to Debian

["Shane Huang" <Shane.Huang@amd.com>]

Hi Dann:

The kernel 2.6.18-5-k7 (Debian 2.6.18.dfsg.1-14~snapshot.9304)
can also boot on SB600 board. But there are also many ODD error
messages when booting up if SATA ODD is connected, we need more
debug on it too.

Yep, we use ODD/HDD to indicate "Optical/Hard Disk Drive"


BTW:
We submitted many SB700 new data to Linux PCI ID Repository:
http://pciids.sourceforge.net/
as well as some RD790/RD890 related PCI IDs.
Which have been accepted by the maintainer only several days ago.

So please don't forget to update the /usr/share/misc/pci.ids file
in Debian. Otherwise our customers will get many "Unknown device"
messages on SB700 board with Debian, when running command: #lspci


Thanks
Shane
