It used to with ide-probe-mod. What happens is that ide-probe-mod is aliased to
block-major-3 and the others so it gets loaded first. Once the devices have
been found it then loads the device drivers like ide-disk/ide-cd.

It seems that the problem is simply that module-init-tools is still referring to
ide-probe-mod instead of ide-generic. So we should fix the alias in
module-init-tools.

Harold, can you please let us know if loading ide-generic by hand works or not?

Thanks,
