One other thing since this appears to be a PATA/IDE driver issue, make 
sure you remove the old IDE part in the kernel.  I forgot that on my 
system when I switched from the old IDE drivers to PATA.

Also, if you use grub, you may be able to learn if things are laid out 
the way you think they are.  I had two IDE drives attached to the mobo 
and one SATA drive attached to a SATA PCI card.  I expected the kernel 
to see the drives attached to the mobo first then the drive connected to 
the SATA card.  It didn't work that way.  I used grub to figure out that 
it was seeing the drive attached to the card first then the drives 
attached to the mobo.

This info may not help but thought it worth mentioning just in case.
