Bug#343048: linux-image-2.6.14-2-k7: same proble, kernel fails to load ide drive.. in my case the drive is under /sys/block/hdb/dev

[Scott James Williamson <scott@sjwilliamson.ca>]

FYI:

if you use a nvidia nforce 2 based motherboard, to get DMA on your
drives, add the following "MODULE amd74xx" after evdev and before
ide-generic to the /etc/yaird/Default.cfg file:

   MODULE          evdev

   MODULE          amd74xx

   MODULE          ide-generic
   MODULE          ide-disk

then run the command "dpkg-reconfig linux-image-2.6.14-2-k7"
