So I'm asking all developers running HEAD who have not already started
using the NATA driver to start using it instead of the ATA driver.
Lets give it a good whack!
Am not a developer. though I'd like to say a couple of things about
the stability of NATA driver. With the old ATA driver, I was never
able to get DMA working on my laptop's SATA controller. However, I
have switched to the NATA driver since it became available and haven't
noticed any problem as of yet. It just works and I haven't seen any
random segfaults at all. I am running SMP system without APIC_IO.
