[lug] Adding Sata drives help

[Hugh Brown]

This looks like you have some sort of memory card reader attached (hence
sdb-sde).

The recent knoppix test is a good one.

You can also cat /proc/diskstats to see which disks/partitions the
kernel knows about.

You can also cat /proc/scsi/scsi (since the SATA disks show up as scsi
disks)
