Hi,

Ive been searching for a driver for my onboard promise 20376 SATA controller, and recently I discoverede that the gentoo experimental livecd with a 2.6.0 kernel on it supported this controller. I am running a development kernel 2.6.0-beta7 kernel myself and this kernel apparently does not have support for the controller, or maybe im missing something in my kernel config? Can someone point out which module/part of the kernel that handles the 20376?

I think you need 2.6.0-test9 or newer.

Solved

:
As stated, support is available in later test builds. In my current 2.6.0 test 11 kernel (built from development sources) SATA support was included.
