does this mean that it won't work if you use the "pci=reverse"? my only ide drive hangs off a promise ultra66 card and i've gotten the board (an asus p2b-d) to boot off of it... i guess the pci=reverse stuff doesn't really matter if you just setup the fstab correctly, eh?
oh, is the command to "turn on" dma/66 "idex=ultra66"? i think i did something wrong because everytime i boot, i get some complaint about "wrong kernel option" (i'm not sure what it is exactly -- it's my home machine and i'm at work now) and the drive looks like it's in pio mode.
btw, am i correct in that your dma/66 patch was not merged into 2.2.12?
thanks, pete
