Yes, I went through this also awhile back. All your drivers should now |
| 15 |
come from the Sata section, both the Sata drivers for your hard drives, |
| 16 |
plus the Pata drivers for any Pata DVD drives you may have. There are |
| 17 |
now Pata support drivers living in the Sata section. You should turn |
| 18 |
off the toggle for the entire old Pata driver section in menuconfig. |
| 19 |
If you have only Pata drives, you should just use the Pata drivers from |
| 20 |
the Sata section by themselves. No need for anything in the old Pata |
| 21 |
section in any case anymore. |

The newer Sata subsystem Pata drivers had been included before in the |
| 24 |
kernel for a long time as deprecated drivers for people to beta test, |
| 25 |
and the regular Pata drivers were recommended for use. Now it's |
| 26 |
reversed -- the Pata drivers in the Sata section are recommended, and |
| 27 |
the old Pata drivers from the Pata section are deprecated...expecially |
| 28 |
because they don't work anymore with current versions of udev! |
