How should I compile kernel in order to support > four IDE controllers? You need to tell the system where to look for the other two IDE controllers. The information may be in your BIOS setup screen; put that in the config line instead of "0" and you may have better luck. If not, let's hear what the BIOS settings are (IRQ may be important here, too) and what dmesg said (if anything). The output of a verbose boot (with the -v flag) would be useful as well.
