Hm, what you want to get is "do not touch the ide drives at all"? Try booting with kernel parameters
ide1=noprobe ide2=noprobe ide3=noprobe ide4=noprobe
We want "don't power up IDE drives at all." BIOS may do that no matter what. So, next best option is "turn IDE drives off during grml startup." If drives don't spin they are quiet. We want the same power-off as grml does at shutdown, except we want it at bootup.
Ok, and did you try my tip?
