I am running linux kernel 2.4.22-26mdk and it supports PATA right out of
the box, on a Promise TX2-plus controller. I have one disk on the PATA
port (and one disk on one of the SATA ports). I would probably like to
run kernel 2.6, mostly because I think of implementing some striping
RAID-1 on it and try that new module out, but if kernel 2.6 does not
support PATA on the TX2-plus then I am at a loss.
best regards
