Quick survey, multiple drives

A quick show of hands here:
- Do you run Fedora Core 3 with multiple ATA-66 or ATA-100 drives?
- If so, how are they jumpered and cabled?
- Can you do large fetches and writes to the second drive without
getting DMA errors?

I'm frustrated as hell by this - I had no problems with the 2.4 kernel
with my set-up, and now I can't reach my mp3 collection because it's
on my second drive and the 2.6 kernel seems unable to deal with it.

servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Teddy Roosevelt
