Alex,

That's good news! :)  I just spent hours debugging the exact same
problem for my PCMCIA-ATA/ATAPI card.  I would suspect that IOMEGA has
just re-CISed the same card.

Try adding iosize 16 onto the end of the config line in pccard.conf
like so:

    config ___ "ata" ? _______ iosize 16

where ___ represents whatever is already there.

Alex, please report back on if this works for you.

It seems there is a problem with pccardd/ata/card? where if the first
io available in pccard.conf is 0x240-something greater than 0x24f then
pccardd will assign 0x240-0x24f to the card.  If the first io is
something like 0x100-0x12f then pccardd will assign 0x160-0x167,0x366.
Adding iosize 16 forces pccardd to do the happy thing.

Warner, could you please add "iosize 16" to the entry for "Shining"
"PMIDE-ASC", and maybe to "Iomega" "PCMCIA to 16 Bit ATAPI Adapter"
after Alex reports back.  Also, could you maybe check this with any
other PCMCIA/ATA/ATAPI devices you have when first pccard.conf io entry
is less than 0x240 (e.g. 0x100-0x12f)?

Greg
