Hello,

sis5513.c is finally working here accross several cold/warm reboots. The 
system is now running md5sum over huge files in UDMA 5 transfer mode 
simultaneously on 2 drives without error for the last hour.

If you want (sis ide and ATA/100 -> you want) to test it, apply the 
attached diff (done against 2.4.17, ask me if you want a patch against 
another version) or

copy
http://gyver.homeip.net/sis5513.c
to your [linux-src]/drivers/ide directory

Please report any success/failure. In case of failure, please send me 
your kernel SIS5513 boot messages.

As usual, you should backup your data before using this driver, ...

LB.
