I ran into this a long time ago.  I had the wrong IDE chip set selected
in the kernel.  It worked but it was buggy.  It would cause random
crashes when the drive got a little busy.  You can use hdparm -Tt
/dev/your drive to test this.  I usually did a && and ran them several
at a time to really get it going.

This may not be your problem but it may be worth trying if you still
have trouble.
