Installing OpenSSI on a SATA hdd

Dear All.

Happy 2007 everyone!

Has anyone successfully run OpenSSI 1.9.2 on a hardware with a SATA HDD?

I have succesfully installed the OpenSSI but once I reboot the system, it
halts with the following messages

mkrootdev: uuid .... not found
mount special device /dev/root does not exist
ERROR: mounting root file system failed.
Unable to continue. halting.
RTNL: asserting failed at net/ipv4/devinet.c (944)
RTNL: asserting failed at net/ipv4/devinet.c (944)
RTNL: asserting failed at net/ipv4/igmp.c (1220)
RTNL: asserting failed at net/ipv4/igmp.c (1193)
RTNL: asserting failed at net/ipv6/addrconf.c (1977)
System halted.

It looks like the ata_piix.ko module included in the OpenSSI kernel package
is quite old. (in comparison to the one found in the orignal OS -
CentOS 4.4with kernel
2.6.9) I tried recompiling the module with newer driver sources, but it
hasn't been successful. There simply are too many files that I have to
change, and I am no expert at tuning H/W drivers...

If someone is running OpenSSI on a SATA HDD, are there anything special you
have done?
Any tips and advices will be appreciated!

Thank you in advance,

Taeho
