Promise IDE and RAID support together?

[Chris R. Brown]

Hello all,
    I am trying to build a large IDE RAID-5 array using three 
pdc20246 cards.  In order for the three cards to work with linux I 
need to use kernel 2.2.9 with the 2.2.9 IDE patches, but from what 
I've seen on the list and what I've tried myself the 2.2.6 RAID patch 
doesn't work with 2.2.9.
    
    I was wondering if there was going to be a RAID patch for 2.2.9 
anytime soon, as my deadline for the project is quickly approaching.

    Thanks in advance,
    Chris R Brown
