UDMA-66 channel compatibility

[Doug Ledbetter]

I recently upgraded my PC and now have a UDMA-66 channel on which I have
two hard drives (20GB & 10GB).  I thought it'd be easy to stick a small
(2GB) hard drive on my UDMA-66 channel and install Linux on that.
Unfortunately, Red Hat 6.1 does not recognize any install devices (hard
drives).  Any ideas?  Does the Linux kernel not recognize UDMA-66 channels
yet?

I'd like to keep my fast hard drives on the UDMA-66 channel for optimum
performance, but if I do and Linux can't recognize the UDMA-66, I'd have to
put the small drive on the standard EIDE channel and then it'd become the
boot device which I don't want!
