And I just confirmed the bug is in the Linux kernel. Attached a patch that I used to get this working on Dell Zino HD (AMD RS780G chipset: SB700 southbridge).At least, I think it's an SB700. In the patch, I'm calling it SB600, because the device ID is very close to the SB600 already supported by the kernel. I'll see about reporting this upstream.
Whoops, I spoke too soon! The RS780G chipset really is SB700 southbridge (device id 0x4391), and the kernel detects it just fine. What happens is EDD returns the wrong disk geometry when I boot the Zino HD from a Kingston DataTraveler USB flash drive. But it returns the correct geometry when booted from a Corsair flash drive.
This problem was mentioned by ablyons on Trac: https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/unattended/ticket/1
So my patch was totally the wrong direction, whoohoo!
