In 2.6.25 we added support for Virtual DMA to cs5520 host driver so it could be it (till 2.6.25 PIO has always been used - the info printed by kernel about PIO/DMA BIOS settings was misleading/bogus so it got removed altogether in 2.6.26-rc1). I'll double-check the code and datasheet/errata that we don't miss something important for proper Virtual DMA support (and if not than I guess that we need to disable this feature for now). In the meantime please try 2.6.26-rc1 (just to be sure that the problem was not caused by something else that got fixed already). > kernel 2.6.23 with cs5520 is works correct. cs5520 scans ide0 and ide1. > kernel 2.6.24 with cs5520 is works wrong, but it can boot. cs5520 scans ide0 only. [...] 2.6.24 contained a bug in calculating DMA base for the second port (thus the error message) but it shouldn't affect anything (ide1 is still probed according to dmesg, please let me know if there are some devices on ide1 that are not getting detected).
