[ale] SATA experience

[Robert L. Harris]

What device are you trying to mount?  I believe the root device isn't
/dev/hda1 for example with sata.


Thus spake Philip Polstra (ppolstra at gmail.com):

       ALONE.  I speak for                the same kind of thinking we used
       no-one else.                         when we created them."
