Hi,

:>   Why this option is obsoleted ? It can be used on many systems when Linux 
:"hdx=noprobe" skips probing given IDE device, if given for all devices
:on the contoller, the controller will be not probed at all
:[ "hdx=noprobe" will be converted soon to "ide_core.noprobe=" parameter
:  as we _need_ to re-do parameters handling because the old interface
:  ("hdx=" / "idex=") is not compatible with the IDE warm-plug support ]

Oh, thats good, some chance is left ;)

:It still can be done - just they way of doing it will change:
: *      echo -n "0x168:0x36e:10" > /sys/class/ide_generic/add

Thanks for clarifying.
