SubjectRe: (U)DMA Explained (Re: Kernel freeze on boot (.123-.125) in IDE init)
According to Andre M. Hedrick:
> Are IBM-DAQA-33240 and WDC AC31600H are UDMA by default???
> If they are, you need to move them off the 430HX PIIX3.

Could you unpack that? You see, I also own an ABIT IT5H 1.5, and I
also have a drive that reports as "(U)DMA". When I "hdparm -d1" that
drive, it keeps working -- but is it really using UDMA?
