I've exactly the same problem here. Anyone have a solution yet?

This controller is now (correctly) regarded as an onboard device and
is assigned /dev/ide0+1 instead of /dev/ide2+3.
The patch below adds an option to use the 2.4.18 style.

# 20265_offboard.patch for linux kernel 2.4.19

# This is free software, licensed under the same version
# of GPL that is used by the rest of the linux-kernel.
#
# treat pdc20265 controllers (incorrectly;) as offboard,
# i.e. use /dev/ide2+3 rather than /dev/ide0+1
#
# 1. copy patch to /usr/src
# 2. cd to /usr/src/linux
# 3. apply with "patch -p1 < ../20265_offboard.patch"
