Can't you set it to enhanced mode in the bios, then shows up as a seperate device id and just works. I had the same issue until Jeff walked me through it :-)If that really solves all problems why does quirk_intel_ide_combined not do that automatically?
I would like to do that. The problem is allocating and assigning PCI I/O ranges to one or two PCI devices. And the BIOS may configure into combined mode, and get confused if the kernel prefers enhanced mode (untested). Jeff
