You can install the Intel Matrix driver after "adjusting" the inf file...

Hmm, I guess a good question is: Why should I have to edit the inf file?
Is it an issue of them making it only install if your hardware is
already set to ahci mode?  But how am I supposed to boot and install the
driver until I have the driver installed then.  Well I might try that
next time I go there.

How stupid of intel.

No doubt part of the Wintel (intel + Microsoft) strategy to perpetually break non-windows platforms with new incompatible hardware like the switch over from the e1000 MT adapters to e1000 GT which are not backward compatible with the older chipsets.

I still have not seen the GT adapter work correctly off windows.
