Adaptec 1420SA + Marvell Chips Kernel Patch (SOLVED)

[hoyanf]

I've just got a Adaptec 1420SA card yesterday, been searching all over the net for reference driver but only found its used with sata marvell patch...
I've tried the patch but seem to no available... compiled as built-in kernel did not detect the card as wel as compiled as kernel module...

Hope that anyone here could assist..

My hardware spec :-

Abit KD7-RAID
Athlon XP 1800+
1GB RAM
Matrox G400 16MB SGRAM AGP

Found a very simple solution whereby no one is there to assist...

What i did :-

emerge mm-sources-kernel

Added Tyler Guthrie patchset for Adaptec 1420SA http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/3/94 :-

Configure the kernel - Select sata_mv (Marvell Chipset)

Boot with the new kernel...

Now just for everyone to plug-in their harddisk n run with it...
