And here's the output (much more verbose!) from the hpt37x ATA driver:

In both cases, my RAID1 disks are found and come up cleanly, which is
good.  Thanks for all the work you guys have done on the IDE stuff, as
well as the new libATA stuff.

Let me know if you need more testing done here, I've only got a
scratch volume on this raid set.
