I initially added only the two quantum drives to the pdc_quirk_list,
and that had no effect, the machine still hung on boot up at the same
place. After this, I added the other two Maxtor's as well, and with
all four drives in the pdc_quirk_list, the system booted up fine.
Should I narrow this down further? Will it be detrimental in any way
to have all four drives listed in the quirks table if they needn't be?
cat /proc/ide/pdc:

and hdparm yields about 25Mbit/s.
I'm trying to get the runtime system to hang like it did before as
well... I'm running "dd if=/dev/hdX of=/dev/null &" on all four
drives simultaneously, and about 3 times per drive to hit the
controller and disk I/O system really hard. So far, it's all been
fine. Hopefully that means that the problems gone away. :)
Thanks for the help!
