What boot loader are you using?
What about /etc/fstab?
Have you adjusted both for hde and hdf?
Does your bios have a secondary controller option?
Did you adjust your CMOS if necessary?
Are you sure the kernel is supporting the promise option? I don't
know the BF24 so excuse me if I ask if you're sure it's enabled.
