Mr. Gerhard Sittig, you don't carefully read begin of this tread.
BUGs is BUGs. To fix bugs anybody must correct source code of ATA driver.
Neither voodoo spell nor dancing around box can't to force work properly
wrong code.

I have some config...

I'm not lucky or FreeBSD 4.8 can't share this irqs or my hardware
(non ATA) incompatible whith bugs of new ATA driver, but my box
don't work if any device use this irqs.

Old ATA driver corectly probed hardware and if ATA channel is absent -
driver don't touch corresponding irq.

Bugs must be fixed. Who can make this??
