ite 821x modules are in the 2.6.14 or later kernel. you need an installer with 
that kernel. how you get that is another matter. You might have to roll your 
own. 

or do what I did. install the bare minimum sarge on an extra disk using a 
recognised interface. then upgrade that bare-minimum install to a 2.6.14 kernel 
(sid/unstable I believe, I don't think its in etch, others will pipe-up I'm 
sure). then you cann see, partition and format the ite drives and move your 
installation over there. 

or you could install through a recognized interface and upgrade as before, then 
just unplug and replug your disk into the other interface. make sure you handle 
your boot manager properly first though.
