Support for ATA133 card?

I have a Sonnet Tempo ATA133 IDE PCI Card that is not being recognized
by Gentoo. I do not see the cdrom being mapped when it boots the
kernel.

Has anyone got this card to work with Gentoo? What driver did you use
in the kernel?

Thanks,
Ben

If there is a kernel module for that card, then I guess,
it's not included on the current 2004.3 LiveCD. We added a
lot more IDE, SATA and SCSI cards, as well as RAID
controllers to the next LiveCDs kernel.

I should be more specific: I compiled my own kernel with the modules I
thought were needed. I did not see anything that specifically said
Sonnet or tempo or whatnot. I was checking to see if anyone had
noticed what driver they had to include in the kernel.

I will try to boot into the LiveCD and see if I can catch the driver
it loads. That should tell me what driver needs to be put into my
kernel.

I think those cards are based on a Promise chipset. Modules for those
cards are not included on the current LiveCD, but should be included on
the next LiveCD.

The Sonnet Tempo 133 is a promise PDC 20269 with Openfirmware features
added. Try the driver for Promise.
