Re: [PATCH 2.6.9-rc3-mm2] EDD: use EXTENDED READ command, add CONFIG_EDD_SKIP_MBR

Alas, this does not eliminate the 30-second delay on my box.

Just to re-emphasize, I feel a particularly relevant detail is that my VIA-based Athlon64 box has _all_ PATA ports disabled.

I am fairly certainly that the delay did not exist when I enabled at least one PATA port, and I can verify this if you would like.
