I am also using this IDE controller, but with a Compact Flash used as an
IDE disk.

I got exactly the same problems. At the beginning I thought it was due
to the compactflash which doesn't support DMA, but disabling it in the
kernel doesn't change anything.

The disk is usable, but sometimes at boot, everything is lost on the
disk (at least the ext3 partition is not recognized).

BTW, I've tried with a 2.6.0-test1 kernel, and it was not able to boot,
I have got a lot of "ide: lost interrupt", just after loading the SiI680
driver.

Cheers,
Aurelien
