So far so good, my system (Gigabyte 7DXR) with:

atapci0: <VIA 82C686 ATA100 controller> port 0xb400-0xb40f at device 7.1 on=
 pci0
=2E..
atapci1: <Promise ATA100 controller> port 0xe800-0xe83f,0xe400-0xe403,0xe00=
0-0xe007,0xdc00-0xdc03,0xd800-0xd807 mem 0xe9100000-0xe911ffff irq 11 at de=
vice 16.0 on pci0
=2E..
ad0: 38166MB <WDC WD400BB-00CFC0> [77545/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100
acd0: DVD-ROM <DVD-ROM BDV212B> at ata1-master PIO4
acd1: CD-RW <PCRW804> at ata2-master PIO4

seem happy, the main hard drive still works, a CD-RW blanks and writes,
and I plan on playing a DVD shortly.

One thing that may have been overlooked is that write-caching has now
been disabled by default:

=2E..
-static int ata_dma =3D 1;
-static int ata_wc =3D 1;=20
+static int ata_dma =3D 1;
+static int ata_wc =3D 0;
=2E..

otherwise no problems here.
