	Indeed it was cockpit error - sorry for the noise. I'm not sure
exactly what screwed up but it looks like having a make.conf setting for
KERNCONF with a list of kernel definitions and running 

	make kernel KERNCONF=...

don't mix well. Adding my NATA config to my list of kernels produced a
kernel that works with NATA except that the CD devices are not recognised
and show up as not configured. The hard disc is correctly recognised as
SATA 150 and I see no sign of the corruption problems being discussed
elsethread.
