Yep, was having same prob with 2.4.21. See rant at
http://eleusis.f2o.org/pmach/more.php?id=9_0_1_0_M

At the time, I thought I'd have a go at hacking some kernel code and see
if I could 'Problem Solver (tm)' the situation myself, but I never got
around to doing it. :P

BTW, which IDE controller chipset are you using? Would it be an Intel
PIIXn variant?
