Hi Alan, 

If i don't use the Compact Flash attached to the miniPCI->IDE->CF adapter it 
works like a charm, it's only when i start writting (reading seems to work 
fine) from the CF card that the kernel oopses, that's why i thought it might 
be IDE/sata_via related.

Is it possible to work around IRQ problems? If so I guess this is not the 
correct mailing list for that question anymore, so can you suggest a better 
one? And if it's not possible i guess all i have left is bugging my hardware 
manufacturer.

Thanks,
  Albert
