What do you mean by "selecting bridge"?  I'm using a kernel with most
IDE chipsets compiled in.

For my motheroboard, only 
    CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366=y
    CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=y
would be relevant.  But, it detects Via chipset correctly on boot.

Mine is 2.6.13-rc4.  I'll recompile with only stuffs that I need.
