Hi, all.  The new Soyo SY-KT880 DRAGON 2 uses two separate SATA
RAID chipsets on the motherboard, the VIA8237 and ALi 5281.
I'm still testing this, but it looks like only one function is
loaded at any given time.  Is there a conflict between utilizing
both devices simultaneously?  I'm trying to use them in non-RAID
(just SATA) mode so there isn't anything special going on here.
sata_via.ko doesn't find the ALi 5281 devices (SATA3/4), and the
VIA8237 (SATA1/2) are recognized just fine.
 

sata_via isn't going to work for an ALi chipset.
