(I'm running into similar problems as you. ) If you want to quickly test Ethernet, you can download the cubieboard a20 ubn image and use Phoenix suite to "burn" it to the NAND. It will install Linaro with a perfectly functional X desktop and eth and ahci enabled, needs the eoma68 uboot and fex changed to properly enable mmc and sata. If I can get u-boot to flipping build correctly, I could finally test SATA.

 building u-boot _really_ shouldn't be problematic.  grab it straight
from sunxi (as on the wiki boot page), do the "make" command henrik
gave us (also on the wiki) and you're off.

> Speaking of, correct me if I am misunderstanding something, but looking at eoma68_a20_config, under SCSI Transports, CONFIG_ATA is disabled. Shouldn't it be enabled? As well as a few more features?

 i've been testing with =M otherwise you get no modules to test!  i'll
upload a new config this evening.
