Thanks for your answer, Mark.

I have a 4 IDE channels (2 standard channels, 2 ATA100) asus A7V Motherboard,
with ATA133 HD (hde) and 2 CD/DVD reader on ATA66 channels..

My dmesg looks very strange (I'm running a mandrake-test version, so this
could be the reason):

RAMDISK: Loading 140KiB [1 disk] into ram disk... done.
VFS: Mounted root (cramfs filesystem) readonly.
kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.

When I boot the Xen kernel, it seems it doesn't detect my UDMA controller, 
Because I can't se those lines:

PDC20265: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:11.0
PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 0000:00:11.0
PDC20265: chipset revision 2
PDC20265: 100% native mode on irq 10
PDC20265: (U)DMA Burst Bit ENABLED Primary PCI Mode Secondary PCI Mode.
    ide2: BM-DMA at 0x8000-0x8007, BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:pio
    ide3: BM-DMA at 0x8008-0x800f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio
Probing IDE interface ide2...
hde: Maxtor 6Y080L0, ATA DISK drive
ide2 at 0x9400-0x9407,0x9002 on irq 10

It's a known problem? There's a patch somewhere?

Thank you.

Davide

You'll need to enable the pdc202xx_old in your kernel config and rebuild
the kernel.
BLK_DEV_PDC202XX_OLD.

How can I do it?

(Sorry, I've never compiled a kernel)
