I have a 2.2.22-SMP+testing environment running and am trying to get
a 2.4 kernel running on a DS20L (IDE drives).
I tried the 2.4.26 SMP and backed off to the 2.4.26-generic kernel,
but it behaves very oddly when it doesn't initialize the IDE driver in time
and appears to not recover gracefully.
Can anyone explain the 'late registration' and how I might force this
to work properly?

...this continues until the kernel panics with "Too many IDE interfaces".
It appears that more than one stream of output is going to the console
due to the overlapping sentences.
