tags 479217 patch thanks It appears that I've found the reason why the patched kernel still falls back to 40-wire cable.
The patch applied to the Debian package only changes
drivers/ide/piix.c. The initially suggested (and not applied
currently) patch was for drivers/ata/ata_piix.c.
For convenience, the missing ata_piix patch can be fetched from
http://marc.info/?l=git-commits-head&m=120915557002138&w=2
or
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=01ce2601e4ba354fe1e25bb940817570d0c8ed4f;hp=a6116c9e60978a6deaa20691c67ffed727e50df1
I tried to integrate this in the build process somehow, but the patch
system used is alien to me and I failed.
Please include that patch in a subsequent package release.
