*ponder*  The sound card is supposed to act as a tertiary ide
controller... (at least, the SB16 I've got is supposed to, if you
configure the jumpers on it appropriately.)

Problem is... I don't have the appropriate devices to talk to it...
/dev/hde and hdf?  I don't know 'nough about the IDE drivers in the
kernel to get that working...

Is there kernel support for a tertiary ide interface?  If so, how do
I get it to work?

I'm running kernel 1.2.13 at the moment.

Thanks,

     Thorf
