You need support in the kernel for the HighPoint (referred to as the 366 in
the kernel config). I have mine compiled in:
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366=y
(and maybe
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ATARAID_HPT=m
to get the RAID features going though I've not used this). This worked for
me in Potato with a 2.2 kernel, and now with Sid and 2.4. You will also
want something like
append="ide2=ata66 ide3=ata66"
or
append="ide2=ata100 ide3=ata100"
in /etc/lilo.conf to get the ide channels seen as higher speed (I have an
ata66 IBM drive as /dev/hdg on an Abit KT7-RAID)
