Dear Mike Frysinger,

it made sense when the init step was automatic. but you're telling me users
And we still want to have it automatic, just deferred.
of your board are incapable of looking at it and going "hmm, this has a SATA disk" ? it isnt like disks are tiny and they have to scan a board for some obscure IC. disks are friggin huge.
Come on. Have you never seen a system that came in a case, and you didn't know if it included a disk, or how many of these?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
