This should make libata take care of all ATA ports and your harddisks will appear as /dev/sda and sdb, your cdrom /dev/sr0. So, you might need to adjust root= parameter too. -- tejun - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
