Just got a new dell with the sata promise raid controller + 2 sata 120gb drives.
Fedora sees the driver (controller card) but not the drives (specifically it sees Intel PIIX/ICH ata controllers (ata-piix)
Any ideas

Check the list archives. Some SATA controllers are supported (eg my Asus P4P with an on board ICH5R), but I believe that none of the Promise SATA cards were supported until later kernel versions. You may have to install on an IDE drive, then upgrade kernels in order to see the new drives on the Promise.
