Hi,

This drivers breaks with my HP 8110 CD-R drive.  It's
sitting on primary slave of a Via 686B controler.  When I
try to do a hdparm -d1 -u1 -k1 /dev/hdb, the kernel locks
up hard.  Not even an oops.  Reverting to the old driver
works fine.

Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 6.30

override with idebus=xx

hdg: Maxtor 96147U8, 58623MB w/2048kB Cache,

The one thing I see here which looks odd is the PCI clock
timing at 34.91 MHZ.  The CPU is not overclocked so the PCI
clock should be 33MHZ but that's probably not related.

Shane
