I am having a problem where the 2.4.x(2.4.4, and 2.4.5, 2.4.5-ac18, and
2.4.6)
kernel does not detect the IDE0/primary slave device. If I put a third
drive in the system as IDE1/secondary master then that is detected.
However
the IDE0/primary slave is never detected.
Using the 2.2.19 kernel the IDE0/primary slave device IS detected
properly.
The 2.2.19 and 2.4.x kernels used were compiled with support for SMP. I
experimented with several different compile-time and run-time options
with no luck.
Below is some more detailed info.
