Bios is configured for combined mode, and installing a RedHat ES3 (Kernel 2.4.21-ELsmp) is fine, the two HDD are up, the installation is fine and the CDRom is working. Then, upgrading to a vanilla 2.4.32, the ata_piix.c file contains a "combined mode not supported" and booting the machine hangs, as no VFS are up for root device. Of course, I can disable the Combined setup in the BIOS, then I have my two HDD, but no CDRom... What is the "trick" to have a 2.4.32 be able to do what a 2.4.21 was doing ?
