Hi Alan,
Is it possible to use pata_mpiix (or pata_oldpiix) with an ICH4 IDE controller
and boot off it?
I've tried compiling both drivers into the kernel, and totally disabling
CONFIG_IDE, but it doesn't boot. dmesg doesn't indicate any detection has
taken place. The old IDE layer works fine.

Hi Ingo,

I've noticed -31 compiles without notable error or warning on x86-64, so I
