Any code now thats going to exist for most 2.4 users will need to do that itself, and after my 2.4 experience with the IDE core I'd advise anyone working on it to a) Pass it off to another maintainer as fast as possible ;) b) Program defensively Once Jeff has MWDMA and ATAPI in the new SATA/ATA driver he wrote then migration might be an even better option. It'll certainly be easier to do a lot of things right with the newest SATA code than with the current IDE layer.
