No, the aurguments don't look good, at least from here. Mime works quite
well so far, but if you check the jumpers, and put it on the alt
position, giving an 0x340 address, and use its apparently fixed IRQ of
11, then it should work. I've had several drives on it and it
recognized them all.
modprobe aha125x aha152x=0x340,11,7
For some reason, the default 0x140 address is out of the linux kernals
range, I don't seem to be able to make it be recognized at the 0x140
address.
Cheers, Gene
