Re: Serious IDE problem still present in 2.6.14

Thanks for the reply.  As per Andrew Morton's suggestion, I've opened a
bug at bugzilla.kernel.org
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5594), it has all the
relevant information (basically copies of what I've posted on
linux-kernel and linux-ide).  So far it's still sitting there as "NEW".
