Hi,

The ata driver fails on i386-linuxbios on real hardware because 
grub_millisleep is stubbed, and real hardware relies on some timing 
(other than qemu ;-) ).

After I added the mdelay function from libpayload and let grub_millisleep 
run that (and added initialisation, of course), things are reported to 
work.


Regards,
Patrick
