Before seeing your link I found details about editing the boot options
on the CD. Basically press F6 and that gives the command line entered.

In my case, the boot options contained:
file=/cdrom/preseed/kubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.gz quite 
splash --

I added the option generic.all_generic_ide=1 after the "-- " in the
first instance and the second time placed the command before "-- ". In
each case when I pressed enter to continue booting for the live CD it
gave an error.

The error presented "unknown boot option" and "ignoring". Somewhere
along that line it placed the command I entered, ie
"generic.all_generic_all_generic_ide=1".

Even though I got the above error, the live CD booted into Kubuntu Gutsy
Tribe 4. I was able to run Konqueror and other applications on the live
CD. I did not install the system.

I also noted the following error when the system was booting:
[ 221.785488] sd:5:0:0:0:0 [sdb] Assuming drive cache write through
[ 221.787235]  sd:5:0:0:0:0 [sdb] Assuming drive cache write through
[ 222.372453] sd:5:0:0:0:0 [sdb] Assuming drive cache write through
[ 222.376822] sd:5:0:0:0:0 [sdb] Assuming drive cache write through

Attached is the output from the lspci -vvn command.

I'll go back and read the GRUB manual to see if I can spot what I did
wrong. If anyone spots my mistake please let me know.

If you want me to test anything else, or execute any other command, etc,
then let me know as well.
