Thanks for the reply Ju,

Here is the information I have:

System: Power Edge 650
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz (SMP is on because of the HT cpu)
Memory: 1G (himem enabled)

The controller is:
v2.10.3 (Release Date: Thu Apr  8 16:16:05 EDT 2004)
CERC ATA100/4ch
Controller Type: 438/466/467/471/493/518/520/531/532
Controller Supports 40 Logical Drives
Controller capable of 64-bit memory addressing
Controller is not using 64-bit memory addressing
Base = f89c3000, Irq = 17, Initial Logical Drives = 1, Channels = 4
Version =6.62:1.03, DRAM = 16Mb

The strange part is that the kernel detects the controller, just not the
logical drive on the controller.

Let me know if there is any information I can provide, I would love to
have this working....
