That would explain why nothing shows > in lspci, but the IDE ports are still present and working. Could be. What would it be then? ISA? Any way to recognize that? I did find a product page, but it's low on real specs: http://www.toshiba.ca/web/product.grp?lg=en§ion=1&group=223&product=1605 > One could always just manually tell the system to always load > ide-generic, since deciding what to load does seem to be a userspace > choice these days. Well, in the Debian Installer we prefer to load things automatically whenever possible. If the kernel does not do it, that's fine. But to have the installer itself automatically load ide-generic for the user, we'd still have to somehow recognize that we need the driver. Any ideas/suggestions what to look for?
