    That was my initial thought, though you'll note that the same message
    is present in the 2.6.7-bk5 boot log. I'll have to hook up a serial
    console to do a real diff of the IRQ initialization.

    No, exact same behavior.

    AFAICT, Dell's BIOS offers no option for changing the SATA mode.
    ("Cable Select" for the new millenium! Arrgh!)

    If a diff of the boot logs shows nothing useful, I will try backing out
    individual patches from patch-2.6.7-bk5-bk6.bz2.

    Thanks.
