Subject: Re: [PATCH libata-dev-2.6] Issue INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS for CHS only devices

Hi,

[ generic comment about PATA support in libata, yes wrong thread 8) ]

I think that at one point libata and IDE drivers should be merged.
Yes, this is doable and I plan to prove it soon (this shouldn't be so
hard nowadays :-).  I really don't want to have two PATA drivers in
the tree with subtle differences (i.e. CHS handling) when one would
work in some cases (i.e. 4 Promise controllers) and the second one
in other cases (i.e. ATAPI support).  I'm sure you get the point.

Cheers,
Bartlomiej
