The drive is ATA, but I think the BIOS makes it look like SATA, which Linux will see as SCSI, right?

Not necessarily... some of the latest 2.6 based distros recognise them as SATA. Can't remember which one, though, and I've had to give that machine back! It's not Debian - I've just checked, so it'll be one of FC3, SuSE (the latest enterprise version ) or Mandrake (:


Made a real mess when upgrading from 2.4 to 2.6 kernel, I remember that for sure!
