Inspiron 8000 IDE bus speed



I have noticed on booting that I have a message saying that an IDE bus
speed of 33MHz is being assumed.

As far as I know the i8000 has a 66MHz bus speed.

Has anyone had any experience with appending idebus=66 to the boot
prompt?

Will it damage anything if not true?

Will it make much difference to end performance - I'm assuming only for
intensive disk use but that may speed up my "locate" updates?
