I've been debugging and chasing down various HPT IDE problems. I've done
some cleanups, fixed the PLL tune and little bits like that. These are
the kind of changes that turn your disk into a random number generator
if they go wrong but OTOH the HPT372N crashes should be fixed.

Now it needs some testers...

Hi Alan,

I've got a HPT371 somewhere (have to dig it out). If that fits the bill 
lemme know and I'll hook up some extra drives to it and go to town with 
your changes.

I have a retiered BP6 at home I could try to bring up this weekend.  The only 
problem is that I haven't been able to boot a 2.6 kernel from the HPT 366 
attached drive it as the device id's seem to have been shuffeled about on me.  
hdd goes to something else or so i thought before I gave up on the thing.

I could put 2 IDE's in it one on the 366 and one on the chipset IDE 
controllers to get the thing to boot up.

just let me know.
