I may be able to help you narrow it down a bit. I have used 2.4.19-vanilla
and it worked fine(all drives showed up). When I tried
fnk10(www.cipherfunk.org) the drive on the secondary channel doesn't show
up. I don't know exactly what changes fnk10 has with regards to ide, but I
know he has put a bunch of stuff from the 20-pre series in fnk10. Hope this
helps.
