/proc/interrupts reports different irqs for each ide device:
5: 5018683 XT-PIC ide4
11: 167995 XT-PIC ide2, eth0
14: 39799 XT-PIC ide0
15: 10704 XT-PIC ide1
The problems were weird. The fs I was copying from decided it was
corrupt. Unmounting the partition and trying an fsck reported that it
couldn't find the partition. After a reboot all was well and a fsck
reported no problems.
