Hi,

This card use the sata chip pdc 40718 (as of my card)
the lastest sata_promise kernel with sata promise patch driver doesn't recognise
this card.

I added the following line to static struct pci_device_id pdc_ata_pci_tbl[] in sata_promise.c:

{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_PROMISE, 0x3d17, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0,
board_20319 },

and the card was recognised and seam to work without errors so far.

bilding a soft raid5 on it and moving data doesn't broke it.

It would be interesting to hear from the guru's if this is ok to do?.

Otto
