Hi Andre, 2.4.19pre7 + Andre's IDE patch version 6 doesn't detect my Promise Ultra66 embedded controller at boot. 2.4.19pre7 + IDE5 does work, as does vanilla 2.4.19pre7. Attached are .config for 2.4.19pre7+IDE6, dmesg output and lspci -v -v output for that kernel. Apparently lspci is able to detect the Promise controller, but it doesn't appear in the kernel at boot, and the drive attached to it is unavailable. Tell me if I did anything wrong... Cheers François Cami
