Hello.  I've been poking around in the sata_sil.c file because I saw a message
at one time about the Seagate drives and how some of them need to be in the
sil_blacklist.  Any way I've been trying to get this driver to work under the
2.6 kernel (it seems find in 2.4.26 but ivtv doesn't like that version).  Any
way this is the error I received from the kernel when I was trying to access the
drive.

Most likely you need to update your BIOS, or boot with 'noapic', or boot 
with 'pci=noacpi', etc.
