hi wayn

you need to make sure the the ide chipset
swupported by the kernel you're using

- look at the motherboard, figure out what chipset
  and than check your kernel config options

- try installing that module for the chipset


"Look at the motherboard" is a little awkward.  Try:

# lspci -v | more

and look for IDE information.

In my case, the output includes:

00:11.1 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc. Bus Master IDE (rev 06) (prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP])
	Subsystem: Micro-star International Co Ltd: Unknown device 7380
	Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32
	I/O ports at ac00 [size=16]
	Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2



Beyond that, Alvin's advice is good :-)
