Yep, i have two abit bp6 here, Pixel's machine at the office has also a
udma66 (I think he has both the promise and highpoint there)
You know what though i think i misunderstood the orginal question I missed
the "in udma66 mode" that won't happen you can install to a udma66 drive
on the udma66 controler but it will be in compatability mode. It does
handle the kernel parms and lilo for you but we still aren't supporting
(or applying) the ide patchs, you'll need to build a custom kernel if you
really want to try it, just remeber to ignore the missing arc files in the
kernel tree (aka alpha, mips and such)
Sorry for the confusion :/
