PS. Can't get an ide based 2.6.31-rc5 kernel to boot in F11, though it doesn't seem
to be related to ide. I probably have something wrong in my .config.

Tejun made it all very class based so you have inheriting operations
structures thus in pata_via.c find

static struct ata_port_operations via_port_ops = {
.inherits =&ata_bmdma_port_ops,

and change it to

static struct ata_port_operations via_port_ops = {
.inherits =&ata_bmdma32_port_ops,

Ok, I notice that my system has sata_via loaded as well,
and it is also not using the 32-bit port ops. Should I
change it as well?

Thanks,
Ben
