Isn't this merely a kernel issue not a release issue. I use a Matrox 100 IDE/ATA PCI card, and have no problems with it in woody. However, I am not using the stock kernel, I roll my own. Get a recent 2.4.x kernel source and look into: "ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL support" then "IDE,ATA and ATAPI block devices" then "Promise PDC20246...." or others and "Special UDMA featurs" HTH, Brooks
