The system hangs when initialising the ATA driver if a Master IDE drive is not
connected to the primary IDE port.

Fix:
Plug a Master IDE drive in, however, this is not possible for my application
- the patch adds two configuration variables to separately enable/disable the primary and/or secondary interface
