I consider this a showstopper since I could boot from CD but sysinstall could not see the DVD drives, thus no CD install. I had to mount the CD in another machine and do a NFS install.
SATA optical drives are not supported, neither is your brand new gaming sound card. This is far from being a show stopper. Please consult the hardware notes in the future before complaining on the lists.
The Hardware Notes do not mention SATA at all except for RAID controllers. I figured if the SATA hard drives are supported the DVD drives would be also since the notes did not say that they were not.
Is there a timeframe for SATA CD and DVD support?
