Unluckily I cannot. But what is clear is that this is a bug somewhere in 
between the EIDE drivers and the SCSI emulation.
I'm experiencing a similar problem. I cannot enable the 32bit mode and the 
multi sector I/O.

What I have done in order to try to have some better performances is to:
1. use tha maximum filesystem read ahead values (-a)
2. use the lookahead drive feature (-A)
3. enable the write cache (-W) (read the manual here)
4. enable the dma (-d)

In the meantime I hope the bug will be fixed.
