How is it the sis driver is still not stable? (So glad my old board is 
broken).

Okay, it has been renamed to ide-cd_mod. I always wondered why we add 
the CD modules in there anyway: Nobody needs CD drives during initramfs. 
If he/she does (live cd), one can add it by hand. I will drop the CD 
modules from the mkinitcpio hooks completely.

No idea. I am using install -D -m644 to install the .preset, so it is 
your turn to tell me why.
