It's not.  After the install via text mode (because of the
issues with the graphical installer using the new
cdrom.img), UDMA was not enabled by defualt.

I was getting like 4.5 mb/sec on the 64mb test
using hdparm -itT /dev/hde... after enabling
UDMA and promise controller under block
devices in kernel and recompiling I am not
getting around 28mb/sec on the 64mb test.
