Hi:
I built a version that removed the SCSI and ATM support with no change.
Something has changed such that only one channel of the PCI IDE controller
is reported. I will continue my investigation.

I know :), it has just not been done yet. It will be done eventually
but I have other areas in the driver I want finish first.
Also the old wd driver will probably not be killed off entirely, as
its the only one we have that support old ST506/ESDI drives.
