[Wftl-lug] Problems with SATA only Fedora Core 6 booting

[James Alexander]

Attached I have the grub.conf file, and the output from the command
that Lou requested that I run. I hope it doesn't matter that I ran
this inside of the knoppix session instead of from the command line of
the linux rescue of the FC6 disc. When googling the last line of this
(that appears to be an error) "Failed initialization of WD-7000 SCSI
card!" I found that this was only pertaining to SCSI cards
specifically rather than to SATA drives. Did I miss something?

Thanks all for your replies and your help so far.
