Dell Latitude C610



Hi all,

I have a Dell Latitude C610 which I just installed sarge on, The problem
is that Every time I try to boot my own kernels I get the error "Please
append root option=..." Checking during the boot process it seems that
the hard disks are not detected, so i presume that the IDE controller is
not compiled in

The problem is that I cannot find the IDE controller under the 2.6.
kernel-menu, 

lspci states that the IDE controller is an "Intel Corp. 82801CAM IDE
U100" but in the kernel-config the only Intel IDE controller is the
"Intel PIIXn" which is already built into the kernel

Any help appreciated, The IDE chipset is supported by Linux as the stock
kernel boots just fine
