[Voyage-linux] Re: v0.6 on WRAP - dma errors

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi Dylan,

Thanks for the hint.  I think the problem is that ide-core is being 
compiled as module instead of in-kernel.  I am now preparing the kernel 
image which have ide-core compiled in-kernel.  Hoping that it could 
solve yours and some others problems.

Punky
