But I had been trying libata with the 2.6.6 kernel that I originally mentioned, and was getting the lockups. Strangely, I started getting those lockups this morning while on IDE. I investigated the problem a bit further, and it turned out that a problematic SB Live was messing up the system (I had my suspicions on this card already). After removing that, I was able to boot up into IDE again. Just now, I plugged the SATA converter back in, and I'm now booted up on SATA with no problems at all. Sorry for the noise :) Daniel
