Alan,

Attached is a patch against linux-2.0.34pre7 which adds UltraDMA
detection/support, as well as support for >8Gig units.

I have back-ported this code from 2.1.92, but cannot test it completely
on my own system (my systems cannot boot under 2.0.34 for various
good reasons).

The patch does NOT include auto-detection/configuration
of the Promise Ultra33 cards -- need full 2.1.xx for that stuff.

Cheers.
