Then recompile and install the kernel again... This will _remove_ support for that device from your kernel... Be careful what you comment out (some things are needed for the machine to boot) Try to think ahead a bit (e.g. if you know your going to be adding another IDE drive - leave both IDE drive definitions in the kernel - just 'in case') - probably a better example is forgetting to include SCSI tape support and then plugging in a tape drive, and expecting it to work...
