Peter, "I'm not using the builtin VT8237..." I wanted make sure I understand this comment. You are not using which part of the VT8237? It's a huge chip with a lot of functions - Serial ATA, RAID Controller, Parallel ATA, portions of Via sound support, USB, keyboard and mouse controllers. I am *thinking* you mean that you are not using SATA, or RAID, or neither, but I'm not clear. You MUST be using the keyboard and mouse controllers at least, right? I guess maybe you are using just a standard ATA drive and CDROM on the parallel ATA interface? This could be a fall-back position if I do have trouble with SATA for some reason. (I think I won't, but...) I completely get that I do not need to patch gs-sources to use the VT8237. I just want to be 100% completely clear what you are doing.
