Ceri, Sounds like you have a v2, but I'm very sure mine didn't work with 4.4-release. Plus, Soren did earlier suggest that the v2 wasn't yet supported *properly* in 4.x-stable. The issue I had, was similar to one reported for the Fasttrak 100, where at boot, if a drive was connected to each IDE controller, then the machine would hang before any drives were mounted. This problem goes away if the card is present but no drives are attached to it (both drives worked on the onboard controller). I see some changes have gone in since my last buildworld. I'll have a look to see if my card works...
