Linux: SATA Status

Jeff Garzik noted that he has updated the Serial ATA Linux softwarestatus report, "things in SATA-land have been moving along recently". The status report notes that, "the 'ATA host state machine', the core of the entire driver, is considered production-stable." The libATA driver uses the kernel's SCSI layer, and causes each SATA port to appear as a new SCSI bus.
