Hello again,
I've been thinking about it. Maybe I'm speaking nonsense here but:

The "FSG case" (i.e: when I use original freecom kernel" and can see the 
drive) shows:
ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1420 ctl 0x142A bmdma 0x1400 irq 22
ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1440 ctl 0x144A bmdma 0x1410 irq 22
ata3: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1430 ctl 0x143A bmdma 0x1408 irq 22

(Always PATA).

whereas the debian kernel shows:
ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1420 ctl 0x142A bmdma 0x1400 irq 22
ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1430 ctl 0x143A bmdma 0x1408 irq 22
ata3: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1440 ctl 0x144A bmdma 0x1410 irq 22

And my internal drive is IDE(PATA, I guess).

Could you please post the result of lspci on your system? It could be 
that my model has VT6421 and yours has a different one.

Maybe I should start thinking about compiling my own kernel. Meanwhile, 
if you already are running something newer than 2.6.20 I'd really like 
you to send me the image for "kexec-ing" it.

Best regards
  Juan
