ide-generic: load conflicts with IDE drivers (PORTS ALREADY IN USE)

Hi,

versions:
linux-image-2.6.15-k7 and linux-image-2.6.15-386 (appears with both)
udev 077-0ubuntu5

Sympton:
Kernel won't find root partition (here /dev/hde3).

Hardware:
root partition on SATA-ctrler "Highpoint Rocket Raid 1520" (module hpt366)
other partitions on IDE/raid "Highpoint HPT370" (also module hpt366)

Some output:
dmesg of linux-image-2.6.15-k7:
