Hallo,

I'm using some Thinkpads, I like to use them.
Now I try to use them in port replikators.

When I use a T23 without a 2631 port replikator then Linux finds IDE0  
and IDE1, the HD is /dev/hda and the DVD drive is /dev/hdc.

When I put the T23 into a 2631 and then boot it Linux finds not only  
IDE0 and IDE1 but also IDE2 and IDE3, and it tells me that the HD is  
/dev/hde.
"dmesg" also reports a CMD 648 - is such a controller built into the  
port replikator?

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
