I use debian 2.2 (potato). I got the 2.2.17.pre6-ide kernel image which
has UDMA-66 support precompiled and it recognized the IDE Chipset on my
Asus P3V-133 (a VIA something or the other). I set idebus=66 on boot
params (I use loadlin), or else it would default to UDMA-33.
BTW, did you know that Debian Distributions are named after characters in
Toy Story? (potato, slink, sid, woody, bo, hamm, etc)
Unlike Red Hat which seems to have no logic in the names of their
distributions (Hedwig? Cartman? Biltmore? Vanderbilt?)
