I would be interested in debug output from filo-0.5, e.g. r52, with<br>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://stuge.se/filo.r52.ide_ext2_pio4_debug6.patch">http://stuge.se/filo.r52.ide_ext2_pio4_debug6.patch</a>
applied and both<br>
DEBUG_PCI = 1 and DEBUG_IDE = 1 in Config. Please also set<br>
USE_GRUB = 0 to make the interface easier to work with.<br>
