Did you boot with -f to force the kext cache to be reloaded? If you just switch from an IDE drive to a SATA without reloading the kext cache, you will get errors.

I've put this on hold with yesterday's news that Apple is including SD card slots on the new macbooks. I'd like to see what they have done before proceeding.

Unfortunately, I'm also learning the DSDT myself. And most manufacturers don't document anything about the devices or their methods. It's mainly error and trial, I'm afraid.

I will take a look at acpid.

You can ignore the _INI code. That's just setting the OS version so that other methods can test it and do different logic.
