* (usually 14 & 15).
* There can be up to two drives per interface, as per the ATA-2 spec.
*
- * Primary: ide0, port 0x1f0; major=3; hda is minor=0; hdb is minor=64
- * Secondary: ide1, port 0x170; major=22; hdc is minor=0; hdd is minor=64
- * Tertiary: ide2, port 0x???; major=33; hde is minor=0; hdf is minor=64
- * Quaternary: ide3, port 0x???; major=34; hdg is minor=0; hdh is minor=64
* ...
*
* From hd.c:
* This was a rewrite of just about everything from hd.c, though some original
* code is still sprinkled about. Think of it as a major evolution, with
* inspiration from lots of linux users, esp. hamish@zot.apana.org.au
- *

- * detection w/o the hang loop.
- * Added support for ide8/ide9
- * Added idex=ata66 for the quirky chipsets that are
- * ATA-66 compliant, but have yet to determine a method
- * of verification of the 80c cable presence.
