Actually - NO - according to RedHat tech support - only if the ATA66 drive is on the main IDE channels, then you need to get a third pary driver

I would think Mandrake 7.1 would, but in any case, if the onboard controler can handle it, it should work, unless RH doesnt have support for your onboard controler. [sig]<p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.com>kb244@kb244.com</a><br><a href=

That's the problem - the additional controller is not recgonized by Mandrake, Caldera or RedHat and the vendor does not plan to suppor LINUX - unforntunetly they won't take a return for that reason and I can't afford another one right now - I got past the problem - I put the controller in an NT BDC and and shared the drive. Works great...
