I just set IDE_DELAY=4000 in my 3.2-STABLE kernel, and now it sees all disks
on both controllers. I think the problem was that one of my IDE disks is a
"Joe IDE device" (TM). Depending on which controller it was put would cause
that controller to be "not found". Ok, my problem is solved - don't know about
that ATAPI drive of yours though...Is it only detected at boot time when there's
a CD in it ? is it detected ok in other OS's without the need for putting the CD in
?
