This patch enables plain IDE functionality on the VIA VT6410 IDE controller

driver, but you can use Linux's software RAID once the drives are visible.
I did not write the original version of this patch, which I found on the
internet back in the days of kernel 2.6.2. I have been unable to identify
the original author to give him/her proper credit. I have been maintaining
and updating this patch since then and have released several updates which
have been successfully used by others who have downloaded it from my
website.
It seems appropriate that this minimal functionality should be in the
mainstream kernel.
Thank you, I have been running with a similar patch for 2.4 series, but
have been running unpatched kernels for testing and have not had access
to my other drives. Hopefully this can get into the mainstream without
too much delay.
