Vojtech's version of drivers/ide/piix.c which went into 2.5.7
oopses with a divide-by-zero exception when initialising older
pre-UDMA chips, like in the following 430HX chipset:

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 430HX - 82439HX TXC [Triton II] (rev 03)
00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 ISA [Natoma/Triton II] (rev 01)
00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 IDE [Natoma/Triton II]
(PCI IDs 8086:1250, 8086:7000, and 8086:7010, respectively)

The error occurs in piix.c:piix_set_drive() line 334, shown below.
The 82371SB has PIIX_UDMA_NONE in the piix_ide_chips[] array,
so piix_config->flags & PIIX_UDMA is zero, which makes "umul" zero,
which causes the divide-by-zero on line 334.

317 static int piix_set_drive(ide_drive_t *drive, unsigned char speed)
318 {
319 ide_drive_t *peer = HWIF(drive)->drives + (~drive->dn & 1);
320 struct ata_timing t, p;
321 int err, T, UT, umul;
322
323 if (speed != XFER_PIO_SLOW && speed != drive->current_speed)
324 if ((err = ide_config_drive_speed(drive, speed)))
325 return err;
326
327 umul = min((speed > XFER_UDMA_4) ? 4 : ((speed > XFER_UDMA_2) ? 2 : 1),
328 piix_config->flags & PIIX_UDMA);
329
330 if (piix_config->flags & PIIX_VICTORY)
331 umul = 2;
332
333 T = 1000000000 / piix_clock;
334 UT = T / umul;
