If I am not mistaken, driver version 1.04 is the latest one you have > ?Promise PATA-on-SATA-cards support lives in libata-dev.git#promise-sata-pata, until someone cleans it up.
This is not found in 2.6.17-rc4 nor 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1. It is found in Andrew Morton's -mm tree, though.
It's not in 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1?
Did you remove that support from the libata patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/ ?
2.6.15-libata1.patch added Promise PATA-on-SATA for my PC20378 (see my email from earlier today)...
In fact, back on 09/09/05, Matt (Reuther?) pointed me to your patches (and CC'd the list) for exactly that reason:

I'm confused...

No. -libata1 only contains #upstream, not other useful for-testing changes such as #promise-sata-pata.

Just simply that 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1 patch didn't include "other stuff", unlike the other patches.

OK - so some patches that were in older *-libata1.patch's are not in 2.6.17-rc4-git2-libata1.patch. Got it.
Thanks for the clarification.

BTW - Jeff, for what it's worth, I've found the PATA-on-SATA support to work quite well, except for the one raid-autodetect problem I posted a few times - the PATA support itself seems very solid.
I've hit the disks fairly hard and things seem good.
