Ok, So I found a BIOS settings combination that causes it to not lock up
when detecting SATA drives. I had to set it to "IDE" mode instead of
"AHCI" mode. That's fucking stupid, but whatever. Linux won't care, it
will just use the drives correctly.
I'm almost done installing a base OS on a 160GB drive and will have it
back up shortly.
I've also added a cat5 cable for minotaur to the gige switch for 172.30,
and moved the vlan of switch2 Fa0/5 to vlan20 so it can have direct
interwebs again.
