Hi,
I'd like to help test the new libata-based PATA drivers since they solve
specific problems I've been having with my workstation hardware (Intel
ICH7 with SATA and PATA devices attached).
Is there a way to obtain a standalone patch I can apply against a
2.6.17.X/2.6.18-rcX kernel or should I just use the -mm tree? I grabbed
Alan's patch-2.6.17-ide1.gz way back when but this is obviously now very
much out of date.
Thanks,
-mato

You can easily generate it from libata-dev.git.
git diff master..upstream

Its somewhat tied to the -mm ata and scsi stuff now so the best approach
is to use -mm, or wait for 19-rc.
