Yeah I read it as 'faster ide' but the board/disk won't do it. The disk
seems up to it, but something else is dodgy.

That's the sort of thing a luser like me needs to know!
/busies himself compiling a _working_ 2.6.22.6 kernel without gigabytes
of network stuff clogging buffers and with symbols in . . . split & load
by floppy, Reassemble.
Much later:
These initcalls all came in, ran for a 0-5 milliseconds, and returned
zero unless otherwise stated. There are more, but they're at the
beginning of the kernel, when it's setting itself up. I can copy the lot
if needed.
