I am still unable to access the disk on IDE1 even with the cdrom removed on that channel. (though from the dmesg it looks like the cdrom makes things even worse) I have also tried Alan's new 2.4.21-pre4-ac2 (btw: extraversion is still -ac1), with no difference. I am looking forward to try the patch!
