SATA issues with Albatron KX600S motherboard and debian etch

[Simon <greminn@gmail.com>]

Hi There,

We have a Albatron KX600S motherboard with a single IDE 40GB drive
(with debian etch installed) and 2 x 200GB SATA (was going to software
RAID 1 these). But we cant see /dev/sda or /dev/sdb and get the below
in the dmesg. Any thoughts/tips/pointers on how to get these working?
Thanks! Simon
