The cards I have identify in /proc/pci as:
Unknown mass storage controller: Promise Technology, Inc. 20269 (#2) (rev 2)
That's an Ultra 133 TX, I have the same one.
They aren't RAID cards (as far as I'm aware!) and I needed to apply the AC patches to 2.4.20 to get them to be recognised. (These patches are integrated into 2.4.22)
Hmm. Ok. Weird... My antique SuSE linux distro 7.3 recognized them right away, and so did the latest SuSE 8.2 I installed over that yesterday.
SuSE has been known to apply a lot of patches to their kernel though...
I use a plain kernel.org 2.4.22 kernel with tw0 Ultra133 and one Ultra100 in one server. It works without problems. Are you sure you activated ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL -> IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices -> PROMISE PDC202(68|69|70|71|75|76|77)?
That should do the trick.
Hope this helps, Norman. -- --
