Actually, no, all SATA slots are ok on this board (afaik); it's on the ck804
chipset that we have issues.

On this board we're still missing some interrupts on one of the PCI slots;
there's no acpi, no fan control yet, some funkiness with i2c, etc.

That should be interesting; count me in :) I have a couple spi boards of this
type that need to be LB'ed.

Thanks,
