FYI...I'm using grub also.  Didn't seem to have any problems downloading songs to my MP3 stick which was sda1.

I wonder if it's different flavors of BIOS causing the issue??


One thing that I had thought I had licked, but apparantly haven't is the screen blanking issue with APM working.  I have the BIOS set to customized and have every setting that has anything to do with blanking the screen turned off.  But sure enough, the screen will blank and the system becomes unresponsive at that point.  (It's not the normal X blanking the screen but the bios).

I read some IBM posts and supposedly this is a known issue with the 2.4 kernel and that kernel 2.6 solves this issue.
