This post by Jay is confusing me: http://www.redhat.com/archives/axp-list/2004-October/msg00108.html Jay seems to say that support for the 39160 controller was added for EV6 machines. Yet earlier the thread starts with some one who has an XP1000, and can't boot from a 39160 controller yet Jay's XP1000 might.
