Sure, it's possible.  5.2.1 is very close to tracking -CURRENT, and there can 
be some fallout after people make changes to APCI, the ATAng code, and 
whatnot.  However, I have to say that the EPIA hardware tends to be fairly 
sensitive to things like poor IDE cables, jumping everything according to 
spec, etc.
