Bug#256374: Still having this problem: CD-ROM Compaq Presario 1220



>With only one distribution exception (which later fails for a different 
>reason), most of the 2.6 kernel distributions do NOT install on a Compaq

I'm getting this exact problem; the exact problem described in the bug report.  
With a Compaq Preasio 1230.

I can't install with 2.4 for various other reasons.

Is there any way to force it to use IRQ 15 for ide1?  That seems to be the 
primary difference between the functional 2.4 kernel and the broken 2.6 
kernel.  I've tried adding options to the kernel command line, but it doesn't 
seem to work.
