Is it enough to re-word the old entry about libata as follows:
<!-- FATE 301746 and bug 305095 -->
<sect3 id="libata" status="2007-09-14">
<title>libata for IDE Devices</title>
<para>
libata uses <filename>/dev/sda</filename> for the first harddisk instead of
<filename>/dev/hda</filename>. Disks with more than 15 partitions are not
handled right now.
To use the old scheme, boot with the following kernel parameter:</para>
<screen
>hwprobe=-modules.pata</screen>
</sect3>
<para>Then you will be able to see partitions > 15 again and can access them
for installation.</para>
</sect2>
