hi
I have a Dell inspiron 6000 with the following hardware :

0000:00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) SATA Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 80 [Master])
        Subsystem: Dell: Unknown device 0188
Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-
problem is, it doesn't attach the dvd drive properly...

libata is being paranoid about ATAPI devices,
and as of 2.6.14* it refuses to manage them unless you
supply the atapi_enabled=1 parameter to the kernel.

For built-in libata, use "libata.atapi_enabled=1" in your /boot/grub/menu.lst,
and for libata as a loadable module, put "options libata atapi_enabled=1"
into your /etc/modprobe.conf file (or whatever the nom de jour is for that).

Cheers
