(Sorry for mailing 2x John.) I've altered (not added yet) pcidevs and
pcidevs.h respectively to know the id (3d75) of the pdcsata dev. (changed
the id's of 3318 then 3375 then 3379 to 3d75) The device IS recognized now,
but fails to initialize the hdd. It recognizes just 65gb out of 160gb and
hangs up in a loop then : bogus int (reg 0x2)....
I will run more tests given the time, and if you need someone testing new
code on this new piece of hw., here i am :>

Best regards
Lukas
