Are there any known problems with Athlon XP kernels and a plain old
Adaptec 2940? I have one driving a slide scanner and a CD-ROM, and it
fails to initialise.
After successful POST, and the Adaptec screen identifies the devices
hanging off the chain, the init procedure gets knocked for a loop.

But hdparm can:
hdparm -i /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/generic
or you can change settings with, f'rinstance:
echo using_dma:1 /proc/ide/hdc/settings
echo io_32bit:1 /proc/ide/hdc/settings
That's how I got my DVD drive usable with Gentoo and ogle.
