This is a known problem - if the Intel ICH5/6 controller is used in
combined mode (SATA mapped to legacy IDE ports), DMA for PATA devices
does not work. If you reconfigure the controller in BIOS to not use the
combined mode (so that the SATA part becomes a separate PCI device), DMA
for PATA devices will work fine.
To IDE developers: Is something planned to work around this problem?
AFAIK, there are some machines where BIOS does not provide an option to
turn off the combined mode.
