You're using ide_generic which no remotely modern system should be using. You should enable one of the chipset-specific drivers under "PCI IDE chipsets support". I suspect there was a change so that ide_generic no longer attaches to your IDE controller whereas it did before. (Really if you're up for making changes one should just disable the old IDE stuff and switch to libata but that's another matter.) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
