 	Hi,

  For example someone has laptop with enabled in BIOS HDD password feature. 
When laptop pass POST, user enters the password, LILO trying 
to boot the kernel, kernel send RESET to SATA drive and password need to 
be entered again - so the kernel panics because it cant mount rootfs. How 
this problem can be solved ? Using initrd image and entering password 
twice is somewhat ugly. Is this the HDD manufacturer bug ? Kernel is 
stock Linus 2.6.23, HDD is WDC WD2500BEVS-22UST0, laptop Acer Ferrari 1100.

TIA
