Problems installing with Promise Uttra33 (hde & hdg)

[John Beimler <debian@radiomind.com>]

I have a PC that I am trying to install Debian 2.1 on, and I am having a heck 
of a time.  It has had RedHat 6.0 installed on it, but I want to switch it to
Debian.

The hard drives in the computer are connected to a promise Ultra33 card
(http://www.promise.com/Products/idecards/u33.htm)which does work, the hard
drives are detected at boot up if I add the paramaters described in the UDMA
Mini HOWTO (http://pobox.com/~brion/linux/Ultra-DMA.html)and as the machine
boots up it does detect the drives (hde and hdg.)  When I try to install
though the install program tells me there are no hard drives.  

I switched over to the 2nd virtual console and noticed there are no devices
for hde or hdg, so I am guessing this is the problem.  I am hoping someone has
a quick fix for me.  I would like to leave the setup the way it is, the
HD controller that is on the motherboard is really flaky.

Thanks!
