So, the old BIOS works with all versions of the kernel
going back a year.  The new BIOS doesn't work with
kernel 2.6.11 and 2.6.12.

Anyone familiar with the recent changes to libata or
nv_sata drivers?

No, but I know that there are fixes related to nv_sata in 2.6.14, so it might work again.

"sata_nv: Fixed bug introduced by 0.08's MCP51 and MCP55 support"
(the bug seems to have been introduced earlier in 2.6.14 development.

"[PATCH] Add NVIDIA device ID in sata_nv"

There is also a fix atapi_packet_task vs intr race (take 2) which is way too technical for me to understand before getting a good night of sleep.
