Aren't PCI delayed transaction supposed to be handled by the pci master
(e.g. my northbridge), not by the (software) driver for my pdc(?) I would
also be surprised if my pdc actually used that feature, not to speak of
the fact that the promise + harddisk worked fine in another computer (the
data corruption was easily detectable, one couldn't even write 500megs
without altered bytes).
