Thank you for your help, Sander.  When I use either option, I get the 
same errors.  With iommu=off I get the same SW-IOMMU error with the 
added bonus of this:

/dev/md0 is my 4 disk SATA software RAID 5 formatted with XFS.  It seems 
to go thru this sequence for each of the 4 disks in the array.

Booting from my Debian installation/rescue CD, deleteing the files in 
/lib/firmware and removing the appended boot parameters from LILO gets 
me back to my original issue of the firmware not being able to be opened 
until I do it by hand after the system boots.  Any other ideas?
