Promise Ultra66 ide card

[Henry A. Leinhos]

Hi all, 

I have a B+W G3 rev1 (300MHz) running YDL3.0+ (updated from freshrpms) with 
a WD 120 GB drive hanging off a Promise Ultra66 ide pci card (I'm using this 
card because the WD120 drive won't work with the rev1 ide interface). 
Running the YDL kernel 2.4.20-8e kernel works great with this card, but if I 
try to compile the newer -tss kernel from ppckernel.org, I boot ok, but 
after a few minutes I the machine can't talk to the HD.  In both cases, the 
PCI card is recognized as a PDC20262, but I noticed some changes for the 
config options (the older kernel allows something called FAST_TRACK, or 
something like that).  Does anyone have any experience with Promise IDE 
cards ? 

Thanks,
Henry
