Just as a thought - why is nocddma not made the default in the install kernel (ie the one used during install rather than the one which is actually installed). Are there any downsides to this?

It would save a lot of these explanatory messages after every release...
DMA actually working would be more preferable. This problem has been around for quite some time.
