I think if a lot of other people were still using the wd driver we'd
have heard about it.  GENERIC only has ata/ad, so I'd expect to see a
lot more "sysinstall can't write to my disk" questions.  I seem to
remember having problems with the da driver on my laptop back in 2000,
but that was a loong time ago, and I have quite a few other machines
running kernels from that era that have no problems at all.

If you actually have a bunch of machines that ata won't work on, maybe
you could ship one to Soeren and let him take a look at it?
