I missed the early part of this thread, but here is a data point that may or may not be useful. I have an ASUS mobo here with an onboard JM363 SATA/PATA controller (verified by looking at the actual chip). It works fine when in AHCI mode with a PATA ATAPI ZIP100 drive all by itself. No other configurations tested. This is with kernel 2.6.24-rc4-git?.
.. Oh yeah.. that's with libata controlling all drives in the system. This exact same mobo was used for a while with a PATA DVD-RW (no ZIP drive) under older kernels using drivers/IDE, but was unreliable in that configuration (Ubuntu Edgy). Ditto when the PATA DVD-RW was replaced with a SATA DVD-RW. -ml - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
