    Hi,
   I was reading the man page for the ahci   driver in nexenta core, I's
sure it is same in OI,  and at the very end it says:

     To bind the ahci  driver  to  your  controller,  choose  the
       [AHCI] BIOS option.

   wondering if you have already tried doing this?
Hi,

No, I haven't. I can't find any way of getting in to the controller to alter
any of its options. There aren't any jumpers I can set, either.

If you've got instructions for doing this, I'd be grateful for a copy.

Michelle.

    Hi,

The BIOS is software built into the PC. it initialize and identify system devices: keyboard and mouse,etc. your motherboard or pc manual should have something on how to go into the system BIOS, however, Be very careful when making changes. Incorrect settings may keep your computer from booting

here are a few links that explains about BIOS and different parts of the pc.

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS
   http://computer.howstuffworks.com/pc1.htm

again, that small setting like the achi man page mentions is probably what it needs if it is not set to ahci in the system bios:-)
