I've enabled the higher performance features for my ATA drive by getting
2.2.17, applying Andre Hendrick's IDE patch, adding:
append="idebus=66 ide0=ata66"
to lilo.conf. I was told that Alan's patches from here:
ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/alan
should be used. Is this true if I used Andre's patch? Is the warning
message in my bootlog anything to worry about? The board is an ABIT KT7A
w/ KT133A chipset.
Also, the machine locked up once (hard, couldn't connect via network). I
am using the Matrox G450 beta driver with XF 4.0.2 though. Maybe that
was the cause?
Thanks,
Mike
