Bug#339057: linux-image-2.6.14-1-686: Cannot turn DMA on for /dev/hda

[Daniel Swarbrick]

Try removing ide-generic from your /etc/modules so that it doesn't load 
so early in the boot sequence. I found that ide-generic was stealing 
port 1f0, preventing the native chipset IDE driver from loading.

ide-generic does not include support for DMA, so once it has loaded and 
monopolised the hardware, your native chipset driver (which probably 
does support DMA) is not able to load.
