I did a dmesg | grep 'ide' and got this: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=linux ro root=301 quiet devfs=mount idebus=100 ide_setup: idebus=100 -- BAD BUS SPEED! Expected value from 20 to 66 ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx ide0: BM-DMA at 0xd000-0xd007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA ide1: BM-DMA at 0xd008-0xd00f, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:DMA ...yadda yadda yadda. So how can I enable UltraDMA at 100MHz?
