Okay here goes:
I have a 2 - PDC 20265 based controllers in my machine. One on board,
one PCI card.
cya:~# uname -r
2.4.21-4-K7
cya:~# df

I was able to get the card to run in 2.4.19, 2.4.20 and 2.4.21. I never
tried 2.4.18. But I think it would as I have also run other distros with
older kernels.
All using the the same Motherboard as you. This machine was taken out of
service as an Engineering Workstation and re-deployed with 200GiB
Drives.
I did nothing special. Only thing I am doing is running Sid/Unstable.
