As soon as my RMA drive arrives, I can do more testing. What would be beneficial?

By "large change," I mean a change that affected a few files, that happened before things went south. According to the CVS log: "Centralise mode setting. Instead of doing it in all subdrivers, do it in ata-all.c where it belongs." If this still failed, I was going to keep working back until I found exactly where things started to fail.
