You may have a look at

http://www.dyer.vanderbilt.edu/server/udma/

there are patches for 2.2.6 and 2.0.37pre, which make udma on ALI 15x3
available. I have no experience with the patch for 2.2.6, but the one for
2.0.37pre9 just works fine with 2.0.37pre9, 2.0.37pre10 and 2.0.37pre11 (I use
it on several machines, all of them with havy disk load).
