New page

On my thinkpad R61, AHCI controller works on gentoo kernel 2.6.22r9 (i think i had to change /etc/fstab after installing in compatibility mode) and additionally you can install the AHCI driver on Windows 2000/XP (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=migr-62909) and reactivate the controller in the bios. i don't really know if this always works, but with kernel 2.6.22r9 it did. Anybody else who has the same luck? then you/I may add this to the wiki. it is better you add it, because i'm german and my english is not so well. thank you.

		+	I never said it would not work,
		+	however, in my opinion there is no good reason for using it,
		+	and as it leads to BSODs on Window Systems which do not
		+	have the AHCI driver it is more safe to disable it.
		+
		+	As for the english: I am swiss, so my (swiss)german
