Hmm, Does it not work as is ?? It works on my LS120 drive, and a couble
of others. Besides your hack doesn't find my ZIP drive, and makes it
fail miserably.
Seventh update to the new ATA/ATAPI driver:

LS120 drives currupted data.
The workaround for drives not supporting upto 64K transfers
has been reworked. It works now both on LS120 & ZIP drives.
ISA only configs wont compile.
Fixed.

Beware that if you have it compiled in the kernel you should
remove the kldload in /etc/rc.pccard, as it will happily
load the module, and screw up the whole situation...
