IDE support for Toshibas in 2.3.99 is rather screwed at this time, and
it's not obvious that anything is going to happen to fix this.
Somewhere between 2.3.48 and 2.3.53 the driver started writing 4k lumps
of 0xff to random addresses once every few hundred megabytes. Nice.
So if you plan to run development kernels, give Toshibas a miss. I
found a 4100XDVD quite unusable.
Also, support for the Toshiba Topic95/97 cardbus bridges isn't as good
as it might be because they forgot to publish suitable specs.
