As an aside to this sort of problem, shouldn't we print some kind of loud message in dmesg when we force a high-UDMA-capable device down to UDMA33 due to a 40-wire cable detection? In the case where it truly is a 40-wire cable the user may want to know that and replace the cable, if it

I did the test you asked and yes, it is consistently booting at DMA33 with 2.6.20 and DMA100 with 2.6.19.3 (20 reboots, 10 2.6.20 and 10 2.6.19 in sparse order). I am compiling a 2.6.20 kernel with older pata_amd.c driver and will let you know. seeing the diff I do exspect it to compile

I boot 2.6.20 also on a pentium4 with intel 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) IDE Controller and the same pata disk. On this controller the disk runs in DMA100 as it should, so I'm prone to think it is a pata_amd.c driver trouble. Should try downgrading this driver from version 0.2.7 to version 0.2.4?
