    <braunr> youpi: concerning the ide compatibility problem, it seems some
      bioses provide several modes
    <braunr> youpi: "legacy ide" and "native ide"
    <braunr> i don't know what native ide really means, but when debugging ide
      probing in gnumach, it just looks like there is nothing to detect
    <braunr> and even in this mode, linux uses the ahci driver
    <youpi> apparently native means it still uses the IDE protocol, but
      possibly with other IRQs
    <youpi> i.e. you need a PCI driver to handle that
    <braunr> ok
