Promise PDC20319 & Intel FWE6300ESB on PSCH-L: Which device?

Promise PDC20319 & Intel FWE6300ESB on PSCH-L: Which device?

[Right Effort]

Hi!

I have got no effective answer for my question from other lists
including the original hardware manufacturer. This list is my last
resort.

The main board's model name is PSCH-L from Asus. It glues two chips: 

Promise PDC20319 controlling 4 SATA slots for hard disks. 
Intel FWE6300ESB controlling 2 SATA slots for hard disks. 

The board also burns a firmware called FastTrak or FastBuild which
manages the Promise chip I guess. 

My problem is that I can't find the devices controlled by either of the
two chips:

# fdisk /dev/sda 

Unable to open /dev/sda 

Same to /dev/sdb, sdc, sdd, sde, etc... 

Drivers "Promise SATA SX4" and "ata-piix/ICH" are compiled in the boot
kernel. This is the excerpt from the output of dmesg:

"fdisk -l" lists nothing except /dev/hda1. 

Where are the right /dev/ for these SATA disks? Your helps are much
appreciated.
