Eh?  It most certainly does see the ata drive... I'm running a PC164
off of dqa0 right now. Maybe just the install kernel doesn't work for
you? Oh- yeah- it's commented out in GENERIC because it didn't work
up until a week or so agao. Well- this will change very very soon,
so have patience or bug me to try and build you an install kernel
with ATA on...
