Always helpful. ata_piix should support Intel PATA controllers, modulo some bugs that Alan is fixing / has fixed. If your PCI ID isn't listed, you will have to add it, and an associated info entry. Again, take a look at Alan's libata PATA patches for guidance.

Do I need his patches as well? If so, where do I retrieve them? I lost the
url for it.

Me too, hopefully he'll chime in. In any case, it's highly likely that things will work out of the box.
