Yes. I know or to teach the AHCI driver how to drive the PATA part of the
device. Unfortunately I've been trying - privately and now publically to
get Jeff Garzik to fix that one for *months*.

I also don't have the docs for it and requests to Jeff for the relevant
documentation have never received replies even to confirm if he has it
