NFORCE2: 0000:00:09.0 (rev a2) UDMA133 controller
    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xf000-0xf007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA


Shouldn't the driver set the channel to UDMA100 after it detects the BIOS
set up the chip improperly, or am I mistaken about this behavior?  Isn't
that the "workaround" or does that mean something else?

I think the workaround is something else. I get that message as well on nForce4 (Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe). The drives are definitely set to auto in the BIOS (only optical drives are on the PATA controller).
