Since some kernel 2.6.x SATA devices are part of the
SCSI layer. This can be configured back to the
IDE layer, AFAIK. See the kernel configuration and
build a new kernel.
But the SCSI layer works pretty well. If you need
to switch back to kernel 2.4.x sometimes, then I would
suggest to label the partitions of your harddisks
(see man tune2fs, option -L, or man reiserfstune, -l).
You could use something like

Hi Maximilian,
Since some kernel 2.6.x SATA devices are part of the
SCSI layer. This can be configured back to the
IDE layer, AFAIK. See the kernel configuration and
build a new kernel.
But the SCSI layer works pretty well. If you need
to switch back to kernel 2.4.x sometimes, then I would
suggest to label the partitions of your harddisks
(see man tune2fs, option -L, or man reiserfstune, -l).
You could use something like
LABEL=root / ext2 defaults 0 1
LABEL=swap none swap sw 0 0
LABEL=home /home ext2 defaults 0 1
in your /etc/fstab, instead of /dev/hda1 or /dev/sda1.

Harri
