Can Linux 2.4.x boot from UDMA-100 disk ?

Hello,

 I have a system with ABIT BX-133/RAID mother-board, and run
 Gentus Linux booted from /dev/hde, which is UDMA/100 IBM-DTLA-307030 drive.
 The following lines of the boot-log can provide information about
 the system (kernel version 2.2.15-3.0).

 Would it be possible to boot kernel 2.4.x from the UDMA/100 drive ?
 in http://www.linux-ide.org/ultra100.html it is not mentioned if
 the patches can help with boot.

  Thanks,
     Yuval Krymolowski, yuvalk@cs.biu.ac.il
     (I will check the list but please CC me as well).
