Why not try Abit's own version of redhat Linux Gentus'Linux
there are 2 versions as of now the newest is bassed on RedHat 6.2 and fully
supports the ATA/66
Highpoint device
you can download the ISO at http://www.gentus.com/
i know from experiance with the " append= ide2=0xac00,0xb002
ide3=0xb800,0xbc02"
will detect the highpoint ata66 device . it does not use the device properly
also if you realy want to use Cooker betta7.1 you could always just change the
Kernel over to
Kernel-2.2.13-18abit
and install the source files and patch it up to 2.2.15
some where there is the patch for the highpoint ata/66 but i can not rember it
any longer
