Leann, the fact that no kernel fix is expected for the foreseeable
future is no reason to WONTFIX. A fix will come from somewhere at some
point. It's just not entirely clear where it will come from, or when.
There has always been a fix available by recompiling the kernel to
restore IDE and preload it in initrds, and there is an imminent or
existing fix via device mapper and kpartx available for SUSE  users:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397816

Wontfixing this is like telling upgraders to use SUSE instead.
