Centos testing with sata drive.

The build went just fine.  I dd the image to a 4Gb mSD then deleted the 
partitions.
Next I dd the image to a 320Gb HD.
Installed the mSD and sata drive and booted up just fine.  So you can 
add direct sata HD support on Cubies.

Then I went to resize the partition and that failed:

===============

So now what?

Unless there is something here you want me to further test about sata 
drive auto resizing, that is all for today.  I will later test on a 
Cubieboard2 by dd its uboot over the Cubietruck uboot.  Really rather 
simple if you have looked at the Fedora-installer script.
