The default Debian kernel doesn't support this hard drive controller.
You need to use the pre-compiled idepci kernel (it's on the CD somplace),
or install with the idepci floppies to be able to use this card.
Also, if this is a IDE "RAID" card Linux won't be able to see the second
port on the controller card.
