The tuning code fails?????? News to me.
I have several reports that three (3) Ultra33's or Ultra66's work fine,
and get correctly tuned at init.
I have someone doing four (4) Ultra66's plus the PIIX4 for a RAID 5
thingy.
I would like to see a failure report on mistuning, since I have verified
personally that I can make three promis ultra33's run in ata-33 mode
correctly without post boot correction.
