See here for a mini-HOWTO:
http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~b6506063/hpt366/
Andre Hedrick's drivers are here:

Use the pre17 driver. I am, and it works.
Be sure to select the hpt-366, and set AUTODMA, if you want to
do DMA. hdparm -d1 will not work, and you may end up having
to fsck your drive if you try. Also, you may see occasional
DMA problems, and will be switched to PIO mode; in that case,
you can try hdparm -k to try to restart DMA after a reset,
else you will suffer drastically lower performance. Be sure
to get the latest hdparm.
Refer to the linux-smp archives for further details.
