So, I've investigated to see why UBUNTU Dapper see my IDE disk and why
newer kernels doesn't. There's some big changes in dmesg : a
sata_promise PATA port is found. Or it's on this port IDE disk is
plugged.

Is there any PATA support broken in new sata_promise/libata stuff ? Is
there any good kernel configuration in order to make it works?

Thanks a lot.
