   I would like to better understand the issue of SATA 3 vs SATA 2 drives. If
my Samsung SSD is not backwards compatible, why would there be no problems
when installing the entire distribution and writing to the disk, but a
problem in reading from it to load the lilo screen?

   All suggestions on resolving this issue are welcome.
