This might have something to do with the issue. Here is what I find in
dmesg while attempting to access a drive connected to the hpt370. I see
the same timeout when trying to install grub on the drive. I booted
Ubuntu from the 9.10 i386 install CD live session. The driver the live
session is using is pata_hpt37x.ko.
