In the last days I tried to get support in 2.6.4 for the IT8212F Raid
chipset.This is also known GigaRAID on many GigaByte motherboards. With
no success, because there wasn't a driver.
Finally I could test the chipset with 2.4.26-pre2 successfully. But I
wanted to get support for 2.6.x - so i wrote an email to ITE's support
staff yesterday (itesupport@ite.com.tw). Today (after 16hours - :-) ) I
got a response with the following:

They even posted specs, which is nice. It needs to be a true-blue IDE
(PATA) driver, basically...
