Same problem here with my Aladdin V chipset. DISABLE_PCI_IDE helps, but
what I
understood reading the source is, that this option disables DMA which
cant
be the final solution.
But after all this isnt really a new problem. I found this in the
bugreports:

[1998/11/07] i386/8594           ide_pci disables second channel in
3.0-CURRENT
[1998/11/08] i386/8608           wdc1 is not detected on motherboards
with Aladdin V chipsets
