Re: Fwd: Promise SATA Module ?

[Steve Wardell <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Final update on this... everything seems to work now. I'm still 
concerned over why it didn't get detected thou automatically and add the 
line to the /etc/modules.conf automatically. If that issue can be 
resolved, then it looks like things are good for this controller card 
(other than the oddness of it working as a SCSI device, but it works).

Thank,
Steve
