Speaking of BP6 problems, I've been having a similar problem.  I use address 
ranges 0xd400,0xd800 and irq 11.  Unfortunately, this conflicts exactly with my 
3c905 network card.  They work fine together in NT and Win95 (well they did when 
they were still working) but when I start linux I get a message like "ide2 not 
found" and then I get a Kernal panic and it just craps out.  
My question, any one know how to change the io range of the hpt366?  Is it as 
simple as changing the line ide2=....  to something else?

Thanks,
Paul.
