I got a little further with your -ide1 patch: it boots! However, it 
doesn't detect the drive at all:

[4294671.912000] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:0f.1[A] -> Link [ALKA] -> 
GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 177
[4294671.949000] PCI: Via IRQ fixup for 0000:00:0f.1, from 255 to 1
[4294671.982000] ata5: PATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0x1F0 ctl 0x3F6 bmdma 
0xD000 irq 14
[4294672.017000] ata5: port disabled. ignoring.
[4294672.048000] scsi4 : pata_via
[4294672.078000] ata6: PATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 
0xD008 irq 15
[4294672.113000] ata6: port disabled. ignoring.
[4294672.145000] scsi5 : pata_via

I suppose it might be a bit much asking that an ATAPI drive work on a 
PATA bus with lilbata, but hey... ;-)

Do you think I should try the generic driver?

Cheers,
Chris
