OK, I tried a stock 2.6.20.1 kernel. This kernel boots fine with the
proprietary BIOS (see attached file minicom-gb-20070308-07-with-noapic.cap).
With LinuxBIOS, it doesn't even get to the kernel panic - it simply fails to
find its sata drives (sata_nv says it can't do anything with the SATA
controller devices because there's no IRQ assigned). The boot fails
consequently because it can't find its root filesystem. See the attached file
minicom-gb-20070308-04.cap.

Thanks,
Ward.
