Hurray, using a normal cable works. I got 2 cables for $0
from a friend in a computershop ;-) A freebsd user, which
I gave a promotion CD last year ;-)

Do you think there is a chance to get UDMA66 running, although
for one disk UDMA/33 should be satisfactory ?
BTW, what mode is MA DMA or something like this ? The abit supports
two modes I never heard of before. PIO is known UDMA is known, but
something like M DMA or MA DMA ???
Then an idea. What about something like atacontrol, to overwrite
the speed settings, if you have to like in this case ? Would it
be much work for you or worth the effort ?
Would be fine to use the better cable with low speed...
