Move it back and build a kernel with "ATA_STATIC_ID" commented out. Changed
your fstab to sequential devices, make the other devices just in case.
Reboot and see if you have it right. If you do, then, move your cable back
to the ATA-100 controller and try it. Your drives should start with ata1,
ata2, and etc.
