I'd love to try to poke holes in the libata PATA support, but sadly it doesn't look like any of my systems built-in ATA chipsets are supported yet. Has anyone started a rewrite of the PPC/PowerMac IDE driver? The current one is in drivers/ide/ppc/pmac.c, and supports these chipsets:

You could probably reliably map hda/b/c/d initially with some kind of forwarder providing nobody hot plugged them. Just not sure I see the PATA hotplug? SATA systems typically already use /dev/sda*, it just applies to PATA. point of doing it kernel side. The point would be that old user
