Strange.  If things are set up 0x170/15 as you confirmed, only two things
come to mind.  1) Might be a port or IRQ conflict with 0x170/15, or 2)
your secondary controller may be on a different port and/or IRQ.

To look at the first one, try a "dmesg | grep irq" and see if there's
anything else being attached to IRQ 15.  And do a "dmesg | grep 0x" and see
if there's anything in the 0x170-0x17F range being reported.

To the second one, might just boot into MSW95 and look at device properties
for your secondary IDE controller.  Confirm that it's saying 0x170 and IRQ
15.
