HURRAY, that's what I was expecting (but didn't know the details).

But I think there is a typo, the options are set the wrong way round. It
should be:

../configure --enable-rtemsbsp=pc386 \
- --target=i386-rtems4.7 \
- --prefix=<whatever> \
IDE_USE_PRIMARY_INTERFACE=0 \
IDE_USE_SECONDARY_INTERFACE=1

No, with the way I defined these options, you can also have a RTEMS
system with TWO interfaces and FOUR disks (it the ATA driver can handle
this, I never tried)

So now I should stop working and start the weekend, because the rest of
Friday can only get worse :-)

Thanks again, Ralf.

Angelo, can you try this out?

wkr,
Thomas.
