Okay. I now set hdparm -c 1 /dev/... and hdparm -d 1 /dev/... -- before=20
starting the softwareRAID. The RAID1 is syncing this moment with about 2=20
Mbyte/s. I think I'll stop it now and mount the shorter 80pin cable again=
 and=20
play with some speed settings. My earlier problem with DMA was, that the=20
kernal crashed when setting the CONFIG_IDEDMA_AUTO=3Dy.
