[Libreboot] X200 cannot access SATA device

[Nathaniel Roach]

Hi all,

I've acquired a second X200 for parts, and as it was working I thought 
I'd make use of it anyway.

I've flashed the same Libreboot image that is running on my main X200 
without any issues (but with the MAC/descriptor updated) and whenever 
GRUB touches a SATA device, the activity LED stays lit, and I can't get 
anything else out of the disk.

This occurs with an `ls` to merely probe partitions too.

This X200 appears to be a fair bit older than my main one, 7755-33M, 
produced 2008/10, with a rev 1 board, vs 7458-AW5, 2009/12, r3 with the 
newer microcode.

Has anyone else had this issue, and more importantly, does anyone have 
an idea on how to fix it?

I have a Linux kernel burnt into the ROM but that doesn't see the HDD 
either. I have tried with my working RAM and SSD from the main machine

Thanks, Nathaniel Roach.
