Here is a list of problems, and how I attempted to fix them on my D620&630

1:  DSL would black screen upon boot.
1A:  Used the DSL ACPI=off to get beyond that.  DSL-N doesn't have that issue, but the latest beta of DSL does.

2:  DSL/DSL-N can't seem to see the SATA drives in these laptops.  I have tried the DSL SATA command to no avail.
2A:  If anyone has any idea how to get these to recognize SATA please let me know.

3:  Tried the lates beta of DSL and used the DSL SATA switch.
3A:  It sits on the loading SATA driver screen forever.  I actually let it sit there all night just to see if it would eventually time out, it didn't.

I would really like to get a hard drive install of this onto a D620/630.  My ultimate goal is to get VMWare Server installed into it, to minimize the OS use of hardware resources.

Thanks for any and all assistance.

By the way, did I mention that I'd be willing to pay for a version of DSL/DSL-N that supported a D620/630, and could accept a VMWare Server install?
