62 I would expect to see:
63
64 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PIIX=y
65
66 in your configuration given that it's a Coppermine. You might want to
67 add that in the 2.6.30 and the 2.6.34 kernels, although DEV_GENERIC
68 should give you what you need, as you are probably using that right now.
69
70 Use "make menuconfig" to configure the kernel. Make sure it's "<*>" not
71 "<M>" for the PIIX controller and then rebuild and install the kernel.
72
73 Do you have "lspci" installed? The results from "lspci -v" would be very
74 helpful right now.

80 Yeah, don't worry about this right now.
