Tobias,

	You'da Man! kernel26 2.6.36.1-3 boot FINE on that whacky MSI based box. I don't
know if you know what changed, but if so, I'm dying to find out. After running
it by the Redhat dmraid (dm-devel) list, the kernel.org list, all I got back
were the ideas I passed on here, but no real answers....

	I updated my primary box (Tyan based with nv dmraid) that had shown the the
weird drive initialization that caused the random read/write head excursions
that happened if the box didn't boot just right -- and it booted perfectly,
first try with kernel26 2.6.36.1-3. So I decided to give the MSI based box a
try. It too -- booted just fine!

	So thanks and -- Happy Thanksgiving to the list!
