SubjectHow do I re-activate IDE controller (secondary channel) after boot?

Hello!

Is there any way to activate again secondary IDE channel from kernel (or
user space), if I has disabled it from bios?

My problem is that:
The bios won't boot at all if I have over 32G hard disk connected, but if
I disabled secondary IDE channel, it will.

So is it possible to re-activate this IDE channel, and if it is possible,
how this should be done and would this cause any trouble afterward?

At the moment my kernel version is 2.4.20-rc1.

My IDE controller is:

00:01.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01)
(prog-if 80 [Master])
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32
I/O ports at e000 [size=16]

Any advices are highly appreciate,

Jani
