Bug#587418: linux-image-2.6.32-5-686: using old IDE driver fails, probably due to missing ide_pci_generic module
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-15
Severity: important
The 2.6.32-5-686 kernel uses libata rather than the old IDE driver,
which is fine I suppose, but I wanted to use the old IDE driver so I
could still use hdparm for e.g. enabling/disabling DMA post-boot (I
could go into why, but you probably don't want to know :-)). I
eventually figured out how to do this, but it kept waiting for the root
all the time. A bit of poking around later, I realised
ide-pci-generic.ko was missing from the initrd, so I checked my "real"
/lib/modules and sure enough, it was missing from the 2.6.32-5-686 tree.
I could be wrong, but I think this means the old IDE driver is largely
impossible to use without building a custom kernel. Since *most*
old-IDE-driver-related kernel modules are still being built, I presume
this was unintentional, so I'm reporting it as a bug.
I can only guess at how general this problem is, so I'm reporting it for
the particular package I've personally had the trouble with.
