Unfortunately it seems like plain 2.6.16.x doesn't like the ide
controller on my (VIA) mainboard, I'm getting I/O errrors on hda
when booting this kernel (but hard drive works ok with -mm) :-(
actually I haven't been running a plain stable kernel for a while,
I've been running -mm kernels for ages...
