Hi

Since my first try on 2.4 kernel, I had trouble with DMA when I select
activate on boot time because it selects udma4, whereas my HD is only able
to do udma2. I correct that with hdparm, but I was quite happy of the patch
in ac4 whixh detect ide lost interrupt and retry with a value lower of dma.
But it seems that this patch does not work anymore in ac7?? I can not see
in the changelog that you come back or made other change in ide?? Should it
work in the same way or not?

My hardware: via 686a of course, with Athlon 500 on a k7m MB

Thanks

Mickael
