Not sure. As the system only has 32MB RAM I'd say sometime late 1990s.

Could be. What would it be then? ISA? Any way to recognize that?
I did find a product page, but it's low on real specs:

Well, in the Debian Installer we prefer to load things automatically
whenever possible. If the kernel does not do it, that's fine.
But to have the installer itself automatically load ide-generic for the
user, we'd still have to somehow recognize that we need the driver.
Any ideas/suggestions what to look for?
Cheers,
