PCI IDE Controller Cards?

What do I need to do to get my two Koutech PCI IDE controller cards ("Silicon Image Sil0680A Ultra ATA/133 IDE controller chipset") to work?  I have them in my fileserver, which was running Debian 3.1 (which recognized them fine).  I'm using kernel26, and I put the disk with my / and /boot partitions on one of the cards, and it'll load GRUB and such fine and start loading the kernel, but freaks out when it tries to find my / partition because now it can't see any of my disks.

Thanks!

Re: PCI IDE Controller Cards?

After taking a break I got it working.  For some reason it decided to work when I switched the / disk to the other card, and now both cards are working perfectly.  Weird, but whatever works I guess.
