Sorry it took me a long while to reply and i must admit i seem to have lost your reply to this mail and the other mails of this thread, so i am now talking blind as i cant seem to find the archives anymore anywhere. I seem to remember you mentioning that you had compiled a new kernel.??? If that is true then maybe you did not define your IDE chipset, if that is the case then that is your problem as the kernel will fall back onto, "slow but works on anything" sort of arrangement. The command 'lspci' should say what the chipset is, then checkout /usr/src/linux/config and make sure you have defined support for that chipset. -- If the Linux community is a bunch of thieves because they try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community is built on organized crime.
