well, it looks like it can't find anything in #S, which is the generic disk
driver.  this means your hardware wasn't recognized.  if you can boot
the 9atom usb installer, even if you can't see the disks, maybe we can
see what's wrong.  i'd like to see the output of "pci|grep disk".

the usb installer is here

	http://ftp.9atom.org/other/+usbinstamd64.bz2

just bunzip2 the image, and dd the result to a usb stick that's at least
512MB.

this information should give enough information to yield a patch
to the distribution, and will satisfy gsoc by itself.
