A bit more on the Dell Latitude D930 grml install
grml 1.1 just drops to "can't access tty job control off"
mint linux, which works perfectly except for the sound issue, well-known, lists the dvd driver as the first scsi drive and the hdd as the second, contrary to all other laptops I have used
grml 1.0 shows more, as when seeking the cdrom after intial sequence, it keeps tyring to find hdc, so this leads me to believe there is a sata/pata issue not in either kernel, but somewhere in the installer.
this is very new equipment, santa rosa chip, so I have little hope, but if mint works, why should not grml ?
Is the ICHM 8 sata controller no supported for some reason?
Yeah, this might be a PATA<->libata regression, sorry. Please give us some time, we are working on that issue - as soon as we have a new devel release with a new kernel version I'll let you know.
