	It's really not a struggle. Just set it up once and never
	change it again, even when you recompile your kernel (don't
	forget to save your kernel's .config file and use make
	oldconfig when recompiling it).

	That's it. No problems. And using modern DMA controllers in a
	different controller than your harddisk poses no problem to
	using your computer while burning your CDs. :-)
