heh... I had (probably still do), the same problem. Took me a few boots
before it would get passed the drives (this was right after upgrading to
2.4.2).
PIIX4: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 21
PIIX4: chipset revision 1
PIIX4: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
ide0: BM-DMA at 0xd800-0xd807, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
ide1: BM-DMA at 0xd808-0xd80f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA
hda: QUANTUM FIREBALL CX6.4A, ATA DISK drive
hdb: ST33210A, ATA DISK drive
hdc: WDC AC2340F, ATA DISK drive
hdd: ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE 40X MAXIMUM, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
Other then the fact that as I look down at the drive activity light on the
case, it's lit ... things from a IO standpoint seem to be ok .. (and I
hope it stays that way) ...
btw, for the curious:

Doesn't matter what I have hdparm do to the drive, after running a
function the drive / bus activity light turns off ...
Thoughts?
