I know 2.1 (and 2.0.5) support EIDE drives but how about the second
EIDE controller?  When probed I get an error wdc1: not found at 0x170.
I have my ATAPI cdrom on that controller and would like use it with 2.1.

I don't want the CDROM on my primary controller since it will slow down 
my H/D performance.
