I think the market might care!! People who have downloaded or bought
Mandrake 7.2, only to discover it will not install on ATA100 drives!
Well, it does mean that until then I am unable to make any ATA100
Cooker install and test. I can fake a 7.2 install, as I explained.
Would including the standard tertiary and quaternary IDE ports and
interrupts in the kernel's IDE scan solve this? Is it as simple as
this? Can this be done with lilo appends? Anybody know what the
format is? And where it is documented?
