Hello,
I face bad disk performance on 2.4.18pre7 on
my new Thinkpad R30 laptop with ALI IDE chipset.
I can get around ~8mb/s with hdparm. With
stock 2.4.9-21 redhat kernel I can get 18mb/s, but
random lookups occured.
Chipset is recognized as:

I'd be interested to know how 2.4.18pre7-ac1 behaves - that has the newer
Andre IDE driver work and some other changes that may be relevant.
Also if you can get lockups from 2.4.9-21 please do stick a bug in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla with whatever diagnostics you can get
(if any) and the hw info

Well, this one seems to work correct. I can get around ~18MB/sec,
which seems to me normal. It will be nice to have this in 2.4.18. ;-)
Thanks.
