Only a few hard disk controller drivers support ATA66. For example
Sis620 does have support for this feature.
PS: upgrade to 2.3.18 or above (NOT 2.3.22) because there were a LOT of
optimizations in hard disk acces; ie : boot sequence is 2 or 3 times
faster, launching X11 is 2 - 3 times faster too.
