In the release of 4.1.1-RELEASE, I saw this:

"We also took the opportunity to include support for new features like IDE ATA100 support"

I don't know if this means the Promise Card is supported or not.
Would be worth trying 4.1.1 if unless someone more knowledgeable than I replies. :-)

But, lsdev sees both drives. Can the default kernel see and use the promise card? Or do I need to move them to regular ide first, install, then build a new kernel that supports the promise. Looking at ata code, it looked like it auto-detected the promise but...not so in this case.
