Yes, we are using CF IDE disks on an MCP750.  Right now we just have some
hacks for supporting the edge/level changes and are working on some clean
code.

I was just looking yesterday at what is the best way to clean up
prep_pci.c so that we can have a machine type available elsewhere as you
mention.  I want to move the machine detection code so it's running
earlier and just have a function to call for the PReP machine type.
Ultimately, I'd like to see board-specific items isolated in separate
files for a more modular architecture.
