   Heh.  Actually it didn't quite work.  The ATA driver picked it up.
   The ATA driver does have support for the 3124 but it isn't as advanced
   as the SILI driver.  You won't get hotswap or NCQ, for example.  If
   you want to experiment please try adding the PCI ID entry to the SILI
   driver and see if it can probe it.  If it can it will take precedence
   over the ATA probe of the same device.

Oops, I see that now. ;-)  I'll try test you suggested.
