One of those is ISA?
I should have been more clear... does interrupt sharing work on IDE controllers or perhaps it doesn't because some of them have funny ISA-like hardware attached to them which seems to stuff things up.
PCI devices will happily share interrupts with other PCI devices. but I've never seen an ISA and a PCI device share the same interrupt, this was what I was questioning...
(Of course, if the IDE controllers are purely PCI device, this doesn't matter. I really wish someone like Mark Lord would chime in now)
