Hi,

I don't know if anyone is working on this, but I merged the changes from
siimage 1.06 present in 2.4.x to 2.6.0-test2. I'm really not very familiar
with the IDE code, so it's probably a good idea if someone could take a look
at it. All I can tell is it's working with the SiI3112A present in my
motherboard and it's a lot more stable than before.

I also added the suggestion from Andre to make the driver not care about cable
detection and found a possible bug in the 2.4.x code.

In 2.4.22-pre9:

if (!is_sata(hwif))
       hwif->atapi_dma = 1;

and DMA is not enabled by default.

I think it should be:

if (is_sata(hwif))
       hwif->atapi_dma = 1;

With this DMA is enabled by default on my board and works great.
