Hi Alan, Hi David,

somehow IDE over PCMCIA has stopped working.

2.4.20-pre2 with pcmcia-cs-3.2.1 is OK (dmesg and lspci -v are attached).
2.4.20-pre2-ac2 with pcmcia-cs-3.2.1 locks the box and makes 2 LEDs blink.
Nothing in the logs, unfortunately no serial console (this is my only
computer at the moment).

2.4.19-ac4 with pcmcia-cs-3.1.33 shows the same symptoms.
2.4.19-ac4 with pcmcia-cs-3.1.34 does not lock up, but also does not work.

Kernel pcmcia never worked on this box, so I had to resort to the version of
David Hinds.

I could not try 2.4.20-pre2-ac4, since it boots extremely slow.
All usb related messages come after some long timeout only, and somewhere
in init it stops.

sorry for this vague description. If you need more info, just ask.

Best regards,
Michael

The later IDE almost certainly isnt compatible with David Hinds
pcmcia-cs ide module. The IDE updates that went into pre3 make it even
more definitely so.

There is an addition to be added in ide-probe.c in do_identify.

For cdroms and maybe all atapi
drive->special.all = 0;
