Could it be that the 2.6.18.1 kernel would work where a later kernel  
won't?

I would appreciate details of the IDE settings in your BIOS. You could,  
if you want, email me directly at barry@ the url below if you think  
it's not relevant to this list.

I had a look at your page and notice that you list your JMicron  
interface as JM363. If that's not a mistake then mine is slightly  
different - JMB363. I have 1 x JMicron interface and 1 x Intel  
interface.
