Since you're there ... you might want to download `Seagate's SeaTools'
and (if) give the hdd's controller a try ... ;)

Nowadays IDE core always provides drive ID and ide-disk always setups
drive->capacity64 so this quirk is no longer needed.

Always set DMA masks in ide_pci_setup_ports() to make sure that the valid
masks for a host are set.

Don't override the cable type if the "idex=ata66" parameter was used.
While at it:
* atiixp.c: factor out cable detection to atiixp_cable_detect() from
init_hwif_atiixp().
* cs5535.c: pass 'ide_hwif_t *hwif' instead of 'struct pci_dev *dev' to
cs5535_cable_detect().
* scc_pata.c: factor out
The host driver must set hwif's ->no_io_32bit setting not drive's one
(ide_port_tune_devices() overrides drive's setting).

On DTC2278 32-bit I/O has to be enabled for both devices on the port

Hi Tejun,
Old communication appended below.
I wish you a Happy Xmas and a successful New Year.
I spent some time during Christmas to further investigate the problem. I
bought a new 500GB disk and put all data on this disk.
This is also contineously watched by nagios and cacti
Then

Hi Bart,
before removing all those typedefs in ide-floppy i wanted to check with you
whether what
i have in mind is in the right direction before doing all the work for nothing.
Here's the first patch removing struct idefloppy_capabilities_page. Please, tell
me whether it is similar to what you g
