Hi everyone,
I downloaded the Latest Linux Mandrake image and burnt it to a CD.  When I try to install it using any of the described methods I get the following error:
 
PCI_IDE: unknown IDE controller on PCI bus 00 device 39, VID=1022, DID=7409
PCI_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xf000-0xf007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio
 
Then my system locks up forcing me to restart.  This happens when the OS loader is detecting the CD-ROM devices, etc.  I don't know what it fully means, and I'm new to Linux myself, so any help would be great.
I have two IBM 20.5GB Hard Drives running in RAID striping mode0
Then they are partitioned into a 20.5 GB C:, a 10.25GB D:, and unpartitioned space for Linux, which is 10.25GB (or whatever it can use).  The IDE RAID controller card I have is the Promise Fasttrak66 and it works 100% perfect in windows98
