rek2,
You have the IDE chipset specific code for your motherboard IDE chipset missing from your kernel.

ok that makes sense..
lspci
0000:00:00.0 Host bridge: Broadcom (formerly ServerWorks) CNB20LE Host Bridge (rev 05)
0000:00:00.1 Host bridge: Broadcom (formerly ServerWorks) CNB20LE Host Bridge (rev 05)
0000:00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL (rev 27)
0000:00:06.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0
0000:00:0f.0 ISA bridge: Broadcom (formerly ServerWorks) OSB4 South Bridge (rev 4f)
0000:00:0f.1 IDE interface: Broadcom (formerly ServerWorks) OSB4 IDE Controller
0000:00:0f.2 USB Controller: Broadcom (formerly ServerWorks) OSB4/CSB5 OHCI USB Controller (rev 04)
so which one should I choose? under what name is on the kernel?
Thanks for the help.

It's a broadcom chip.
Look in the kernel under device drivers -> ATAPI/IDE/... (sorry I can't be of more help, but I'm not in linux right now to menuconfig on over there and find the exact names, maybe later)
