Promise ATA{66,100} PCI cards work

[Tony Mantler]

Just as a note for anyone interested, with 2.2.17 + pci patches + ide
patches, both my 9600/200mp and my friend's 7600/120 can talk to the
Promise ATA66 and ATA100 boards.

Bad things happen if I try to do things like 'hdparm -Xnn /dev/hde' or 'cat
/proc/ide/pdc202xx' but I don't tend to do that very often so it doesn't
bother me. Everything else seems to work peachy-keen.

Of course, IDE still sucks, but if you can't get enough of those cheap
drives... ;)


Cheers - Tony 'Nicoya' Mantler :)
