Can't you use the SATA controller as normal non-RAID? Don't know about
driver situation with that too. Just look at the Promise site. The Intel
board has no Intel SATA chipset but uses a Promise PDC20319. So there is
a source code driver too at promise.com:

http://www.promise.com/support/file/driver/2_SATALINUXSRC1.00.0.8.zip

If you really want to use this RAID controller chip you can download

http://www.promise.com/support/file/driver/2_fasttrak_s150_tx_partial_source_1.00.0.19.zip

and compile the driver by yourself.

Or just run Redhat 9 on the board as there are binary driver modules
available by promise.com for that Redhat release. And then wait with an
upgrade to Fedora Core 1 until Promise made Fedora drivers available or
the kernel will support the controller by it's own.

P.S. I missed to mention that in my first reply: please do NOT hijack
foreign threads. Always start new threads with an empty windows.
Otherwise your mail to the list contains misleading references to a
totally unrelated topic.
