I didn't mention that I recompiled/rebooted my system after making the

I added the patch you attached, recompiled, rebooted and still can't
use /dev/scd0 (not a valid block device), here's what I get with dmes|
grep ata:

libata version 1.11 loaded.
ata_piix version 1.03
ata: 0x170 IDE port busy
ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1F0 ctl 0x3F6 bmdma 0xBFA0 irq 14
