RE: HD DMA disabled in 2.4.21-rc2, works fine in 2.4.20

[Lars <lhofhansl@yahoo.com>]

Please read the entire thread.

I am the person who started the thread and yes, I have
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX is not set

Then again, I also do not have a VIA chipset, Jeffrey had
the same problem and he has the VIA chipset, that's where
the confusion comes from.

 From the same post:
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801BA PCI (rev 03)
00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801BAM ISA Bridge (ICH2) (rev 03)
00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801BAM IDE U100 (rev 03)

It seems to me that I'm missing something very obvious.

Anyway, as there seems to be no solution at hand for me, so I'm back
to 2.4.20 for the time being until I have time have a look at the
source myself.

No, this person is not.
