Comment 31 for bug 123789

Sorry to have further muddied the waters. Note: DaveW, the contributor who originally posted this issue, has not responded back with his computer specifications. But the next three contributors (Johan, Necromancer, and Fabio Marzocca) all showed that they use this IDE controller: nVidia Corporation MCP51 IDE. (Search their lspci reports for 'IDE' and you'll see what I mean) I would suggest using this issue to deal with problems specifically related to this IDE controller. I again apologize for adding to the confusion with my previous post.
