Description Alan Cox 2001-04-19 12:02:39 UTC 
The 2.4.2-2 kernel IDE code pokes at supertrak slave controllers without
due care and attention. The result of this is to seriously annoy the i910
i2o processor managing the devices causing a very annoying raid rebuild and
hanging the boot

[Temporary workaround hde=noprobe hdg=noprobe hdi=noprobe sort of works,
 at least well enough to replace the kernel]

The chips are marked as raid controller, bios disable so the ide code has
no business poking its nose in
