The Chieftec Dragon has this problem while installing the motherboard (www.cs.kun.nl/~adridg/amd64/ for some otherwise uninteresting pics). And dammit, once I got the motherboard and all the stuff installed, it turns out the primary (parallel) IDE connector is broken. I've been working with David's snapshot ISO from a month ago, and it complains about all the USB ports, and also doesn't find the on-board 3com gigabit lan (the motherboard is a K8V). Is that, um, intentional?
