It's 2.4.7 (from kernel.org)

/dev/hda:
 multcount    =  0 (off)
 I/O support  =  1 (32-bit)
 unmaskirq    =  1 (on)
 using_dma    =  1 (on)
 keepsettings =  0 (off)
 nowerr       =  0 (off)
 readonly     =  0 (off)
 readahead    =  8 (on)
 geometry     = 50800/16/63, sectors = 117266688, start = 0

Do you refer to the I/O 32-bit support thing? (i.e. 32 bits are 
translated to 66mhz 16 bits on the cable?)

Yes I think so.

Thanks,
