I had that problem when i forgot to compile the piix drivers into the kernel. after fixing that, all worked fine again.
Thanks for the suggestion. I inserted this module but it made no difference. I have an Athlon processor. Do you think if I compiled PIIx into the kernel as you did, I might get a different result?
i think you'll have no piix chipset if you have an athlon ;) you have to compile your IDE chipset into the kernel, i think there are also some global options inside IDE kernel config regarding DMA.
I've tried compiling kernels with the default settings, to no avail. This is desperately frustrating!
