Here is the output from these two commands.  Again, in the BIOS there are
no options at all to change the parameters of the SATA controller.  This
one appears to be set to RAID mode and no options to modify it from this
more so this PC, unless I load a custom BIOS on it, will not be able to
work with the AHCI controller driver from Genode. (device 00:17.0).  Jut to
verify I went through every single option throughout the BIOS once again to
try to turn off the RAID mode but I simply can't do it.
