Ive just installed one of these, as an ide only (jumper)  with a cdrom
on it.  Works sorta OK, but insists on being hda, shoving the
motherboard (softraid) ide up to hde/hdg and refusing to give a /dev/hda
node.

Its only a winraid cripple so use software raid to drive it unless dual
booting.

Should drive 4 drives as master/slave, but you really need 4 masters
from everything Ive read.
