I just want to add that my DVD drive is not detected when using new driver. So back to old one....

You shouldn't have dropped Alan from CC then... pata_amd, right?

Rene.
Sorry, yes its pata_amd.
IBM drive is on Primary master (detected as /dev/sdc)
DVD-ROM is on Secondary master (not detected)

It's probably a timing issue (and might be related to why the old driver makes the BIOS hang at reboot) but pata_amd should I believe be one of the best tested pata drivers. Using it myself as well, on amd756. I haven't observed any problems with (a few) various CD/DVD drives attached and am not actually sure how to go about debugging the thing -- over to Alan.

The DVD-ROM is jumpered for master? Or for cable-select and using the master cable-slot? Using an 80-ribbon cable for it?

It is jumpered as master and connected with first cable-slot.
Cable itself? I don't know, it was supplied with motherboard, though it has one pin disabled in middle of connector.
