Looks like missing IDE support was my problem. I had read only the beginning
of the help on the Enhanced IDE support:
"... the full-featured IDE driver to control up to four IDE interfaces ..."
and had figured that, since I have only two IDE drives, I did not need this
"full-featured" driver. If I had read further:
"... If you have one or more IDE drives, say Y ..."
I could have spared us this thread. Well, problem solved, and thanks for your
help. Lesson learned: R(all)TFM.
