I have exactly the same problem with the same motherboard, but:

        - I have only one processor (Athlon 1900 XP)
        - I don't have a Promise controller, I use the motherboard 
                IDE controller

With Redhat 7.3 stock kernel if I try:

dd if=/dev/hda5 of=/dev/null bs=1048576

the system hang.  If I configure the disk to don't use DMA the system runs 
fine.
