There is one important 2.4 vs 2.6 difference here - in 2.6 if the drive is using LBA48 we allow up to 1024KiB large requests (you can check if this is a problem by replacing "65536" by "256" in ide-probe.c). The other likely candidate for breakage is kernel 2.6.0-test2 which contains DMA timeout fixes. I can make some patches later in the meantime somebody may test 2.6.0-test[1,2,4,5].
