You may also need to enable support for the specific chipset on that motherboard in your kernel config. See ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL support ---> IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices ---> IDE chipset support/bugfixes. Some fooling around with lspci, dmesg, and/or your motherboard's documentation may help you figure out which option exactly you need. --Bruce Fields -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
