Well, thanks for trying.
Comment #16 is worrisome, since it means there are serious problems with the
current mainline kernel on your system.
Anyway, unfortunately, the old-style IDE drivers are not really well tested any
more, since distributions have been using PATA/libata by default for quite some
time. The original problem may also be related to these drivers (of course,
they shouldn't break as a result of a kernel update, but this is a consequence
of the lack of testing coverage).
Since you are not able to test the current mainline kernel, the only way do
figure out the real cause of the problem would be to test the stable kernel
that 2.6.27.19-3.2 is based on and then go back to the previous stable kernels
if it fails, but that would require you to build the kernel yourself (probably
many times).
Alternatively, you can check if switching to PATA/libata makes any difference.
Generally, we need to identify the exact change which caused the problem to
appear and that's impossible on the basis of the symptoms description alone.
