Alan,
A couple of questions if you please.

1) When I compile the siimage driver into the kernel, the ide buses are scanned in the following order:
IDE0 - SATA primary - hda, hdb
IDE1 - SATA secondary - hdc, hdd
IDE2 - ATA tertiary - hde, hdf
IDE3 - ATA quandrary hdg, hdh
I want the ATA to be IDE0/1 and SATA to be IDE2/3. I have noticed from some of the posts about the siimage driver on the ASUS nforce2 mobo this is the apparent order scanned. My mobo is an Abit NF7-S nforce2. Is there someway of controlling the order of scannin the IDE buses? I tried append="ide=reverse" to no avail.

2) To try and get the nforce2 IDE buses scanned first, I compiled siimage as a module, but when I did an "insmod siimage" I get an unresolved external, "noautodma", in siimage.

I'd appreciate any help you can offer.

Thanks,
John Copeland

Until the device ordering can be sorted out, your pain will be the following:

ide0=0x1f0,0x3f6,14 ide1=0x170,0x376,15
