Hello,
sorry if this is a FAQ, but googling for libata remap63 gives nothing
useful.
Some old computers need software like Ontrack Disk Manager in order to
see large disks in the other OS. The way to deal with such setup in
Linux was to add hdX=remap63 to the kernel arguments. However, I

i've been out for a week, but found no notice, did i lost any email or
no activity on this issue?
I tagged it onto the obscure IDE report pile. It doesn't contain any
really useful information and its probably not an IDE layer bug as of
itself. But its on the todo list for further investigation

I think Debian updated the shutdown utility in experimental/testing already

is doing a different thing, but none of the support is anything people are

Hello everyone,
In the hope of making myself a cheap SSD, I decided to replace my IDE

Make ata_dev_try_classify() take a pointer to ata_device instead of
ata_port/port_number combination for consistency and add @present
argument. @present indicates whether the device seems present during
reset. It's the result of TF access during softreset and link
onlineness during hardreset.
Certain device which reports diagnostic failure also reports invalid
device signature. Assume ATA_DEV_ATA on diagnostic failure if reset
indicates device presence.
This is fix for bugzilla bug 8784.

Make ide_rate_filter() also respect PIO/SWDMA/MWDMA mode masks. While at it,
make the udma_filter() method calls take precedence over using the mode masks.

This version doesn't use explicit UltraDMA masks, so converting them to the
