! Silicon Image Si3114
I got this working using the [Debian Installer|http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/] Beta 4 netinst ISO. At one point it required me to "Execute a shell" and modprobe the sata_sil module manually, but apart from that it was reasonably painless. Kernel 2.6's SATA support was easy to get working using the netinst ISO - I wasn't successful in my attempts at getting it working with 2.4 though.

+I didn't get this going with [Debian] Sarge installer until I put linux26 on the command line so I agree that this controller doesn't work under Linux 2.4.27. I am having problems building a custom [Kernel] with this. I think it is because I am not building an initrd image. Trying to get around it by building into the [Kernel] directly rather than as a [Module]. Will update notes with my progress on this - otherwise I might have to learn initrd -- IanMcDonald
