    [PATCH] nforce2 IDE support for the amd74xx driver · 638987b3

    Patch from James Curbo <phoenix@sandwich.net>
    
    The amd74xx IDE driver in 2.5.59 has support for the nforce IDE controller,
    but not explicitly for the nforce2 IDE controller (which has a different PCI
    ID, which is in the kernel already).  I'm not sure if the nforce and nforce2
    controllers are identical, but I made a small patch that made the amd74xx
    driver recognize the nforce2 IDE, and it boots for me, seems to work fine, as
    my drives were tuned to their highest transfer rate automatically (udma5).
    
    I don't know if this patch is proper or correct, but it Works for Me [tm].
    Patch is attached.
