I can boot from the sata drive on that controller too, but again, even

Seems like I'm really stuck as none of sata_nv, sata_sil or the normal ata
seem to work with recent kernels.
Are you sure you have all the right modules in your initrd?
I don't have the same motherboard as you do, but am able to boot with / on sata_nv
(raid).
My initrd modules:
lib/dm-zero.ko
lib/raid1.ko
lib/dm-mirror.ko
lib/ext3.ko
lib/dm-mod.ko
lib/dc395x.ko
lib/libata.ko
lib/sata_nv.ko
lib/dm-snapshot.ko
lib/scsi_mod.ko
lib/sd_mod.ko
lib/jbd.ko
