Excerpts from dmesg on an ASUSTek Super Socket 7 motherboard with a
350 MHz AMD K6-2, running yesterday's -CURRENT:

pcib0: <PCI host bus adapter> on motherboard
pci0: <PCI bus> on pcib0
chip0: <AcerLabs M1541 (Aladdin-V) PCI host bridge> at device 0.0 on pci0
pcib1: <AcerLabs M5243 PCI-PCI bridge> at device 1.0 on pci0
pci1: <PCI bus> on pcib1
chip1: <AcerLabs M15x3 Power Management Unit> at device 3.0 on pci0
ide_pci0: <Acer Aladdin IV/V (M5229) Bus-master IDE controller> irq 0 at device
15.0 on pci0
wdc0 at port 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 flags 0xa0ffa0ff on isa0
wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): <IBM-DTTA-371010>, DMA, 32-bit, multi-block-16
wd0: 9641MB (19746720 sectors), 19590 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S
wdc1 at port 0x170-0x177 irq 15 flags 0xa0ffa0ff on isa0
wdc1: unit 0 (wd2): <ST32122A>, DMA, 32-bit, multi-block-16
wd2: 2014MB (4124736 sectors), 4092 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S

The IBM disk is an UDMA model. UDMA is disabled in the BIOS setup
utility because of symptoms previously described on -current. It
works fine in UDMA mode with sos' new atapi driver, btw.

The Seagate drive is an old DMA-only (no UDMA) model.
