>From what I've been able to find on the net it seems like this is
related to the Libata PATA (Parallel ATA) merge in linux 2.6.19. On the
status page http://zeniv.linux.org.uk/~alan/IDE/STATUS.txt it says the
following:

"PIIX:
        Should support all chipsets but PIIX/MPIIX."

that's a bit cryptic, but i believe it simply means that particular driver 
won't work.
so how do i use the old driver without recompiling kernel from source?
