I fixed this bug by changing a bios setting. if your system is capable
of running the drive in true SATA or AHCI mode, or in my case RAID mode
(this turned on SATA for me) then be sure to enable it and then it
should work. GRUB doesn't seem to like drives being handed two different
hardware system, or it being handed to emulated as another hardware type
else it will say something about ATA bug and disabled the interface for
the cd-rom. The only reason it can't disable it on bootup off the live
CD disk is because it's in use on start up and get denied.

just keep in mind that if you xp already on the system it will not be
able to run it with the disk mode change in the bios.. and xp usually
doesn't have SATA drivers built in. If you switch raid more on then be
sure to ether slipstream the SATA drivers to XP or run Vista which most
SATA controllers with no problems.
