+
+  * The old IDE (PATA) drivers are no longer developed.  Most PATA
+    controllers can be handled by new drivers using 'libata', which is
+    already used for SATA controllers.  The new kernel package, which
+    this package depends on, enables all the new drivers that are
+    considered stable and disables the old drivers that they replace.
+
+    While the old drivers presented device names beginning with 'hd',
+    libata makes PATA drives appear as SCSI devices and presents device
+    names beginning with 'sd' (hard drive), 'sr' (optical) or 'st' (tape).
+    In a system that already has other SCSI or SCSI-like devices, names
+    may change unpredictably.
+
+    During the upgrade from earlier versions, you will be prompted to
+    update configuration files which refer to device names that may
+    change.  You can choose to do this yourself or to follow an automatic
+    upgrade process.  Unfortunately the automatic upgrade process does not
+    cover tape drives.  All changed configuration files are backed up with
+    a suffix of '.old' (or '^old' in one case).
+
+    The automatic upgrade code does not support the configuration files
+    of many of the boot loaders used on non-PC architectures, so you may
+    be prompted to make changes manually.
