   I have intel D865PERL mb (close but not same as you have, I think 
they have the same sata controller), I used the 2.4.21-ac4 kernel, with 
SCSI_ATA enabled (otherwise system freezes right after it detects HDs). 
I also had to use libata5 patches from Jeff Garzik  to be able to use 
drive >137GB (not sure whether libata5 are in one of the more recent 
kernels or ac patches).
