I'm getting this error on boot and it is rendering my two SATA drives
unusable.  The system still boots and runs off of the PATA disk.  I'm
running 9.04 and my kernel is up-to-date.  I've seen this get fixed and
opened and fixed and opened and I was wondering what it would take to
re-open it.  The machine in question is a Gateway GT5220
