ATA Controller



Greetings all.  I have a second IDE controller card installed in my
system and am trying to get it to work under debian.

Things that may be relevant:

hda - 15g HD
hdb - 20g HD
hdc - cdrom
hdd - cdburner
and on the second controller
hde - 30g HD

hde is reiserfs and is operational under my Mandrake 9.1 install, but
not seen by my Woody install.  It is a "fresh" install after all the
hardware was in place, not hardware added after the install.

Hardware specifics:
Promise Technology, Inc.
Ultra 100 TX2 ATA/100 Controller

The manual says to go to www.promise.com for Linux for "updates on Linux
support".  Well, I did so, but no found no love.

Also tried to Google, but didn't get any results that I understood or
could use.

So, any suggestions?  I can't help but think I simply need to use
modprobe and install a module or such.  I played around with that idea,
but didn't hit upon anything that worked.  Of course, since I'm not sure
what I'm looking for, I was guessing.

'Thank you very much.
Adrian
