[mythtv-users] Serial ATA and Gentoo

Same here. SB61G2 (with the FB61 motherboard) works fine in Gentoo as
long as the kernel is 2.4.21 or greater and is in legacy mode. However
it wouldn't work for me with the kernel compiled as SMP (for
hyperthreading) with 2.4.x. So I upgraded to 2.6.0-test4 (yeah, I'm
behind) and now SMP works and SATA works in enhanced mode.

The chipset is the ICH5 chipset, and it is supported by the standard
Intel PIIX driver (2.4.21+).
