hy,
i dont know if there are special drivers for linux but the asus a7v133 has
4 ide channels. 2 are normal ide's, so they work under linux for sure.
the other 2 are controlled by a promise chip (for win98 you need a driver
from promise for them).
the connectors can be used to access 4 ide peripherals, or the
2 primary ide's can be used to build a raid-0 array.
regards
mp
