Re: [BUG?] ata disk running maximum at DMA33 with 2.6.20 and new pata driver, NV CK804 ide controller.

I did the test you asked and yes, it is consistently booting at DMA33 with 
2.6.20 and DMA100 with 2.6.19.3 (20 reboots, 10 2.6.20 and 10 2.6.19 in 
sparse order).
I am compiling a 2.6.20 kernel with older pata_amd.c driver and will let 
you know. seeing the diff I do exspect it to compile cleanly.
