Why is my SATA drive showing up under /dev/hdb?
Your motherboard is running in IDE emulation mode and exposing the SATA drives as IDE drives. Many motherboards have this mode to make things 'easier' for certain older O/Ss.
Unfortunatly, there is no option to change this. I will search for a new BIOS for it, but as the system will be running off a flash drive in production I am not in a hurry.
