I think the response about the ide-disk driver being a module, when the
chipset is builtin is actually the case, I noticed the same thing when I
installed into a few ultra 5's and 10's, I had already checked the disks so
it didn't make my heart stop. The errors went away as soon as I compiled a
custom kernel with the disk driver statically included.
