Linux does support ide2 and ide3 (3rd and 4th IDE ports) but it does not
autodetect them or have defaults for them. You can specify them on the kernel 
command line with ide2=x,y,z etc. x,y,z can be found (the defaults) in one of 
the files in the Documentation directory; they were filled in at about 2.0.4. 
(Latest is 2.0.5).
