libata-pata with ICH4, rootfs

[Alistair John Strachan]

Hi Alan,

Is it possible to use pata_mpiix (or pata_oldpiix) with an ICH4 IDE controller 
and boot off it?

I've tried compiling both drivers into the kernel, and totally disabling 
CONFIG_IDE, but it doesn't boot. dmesg doesn't indicate any detection has 
taken place. The old IDE layer works fine.
