I've tested more now

It spits one of these msgs during the init script... but continues on
2.4.5 SMP

But on 2.4.7UP + ac6 + the promise driver enabled it works like a charm
if I go back to 2.2.19 it still works like a charm.. Time to test more
tho.. I still cannot make the kernel see my raid drive .. since I've
raided the 4 disks in bios to 1 large drive.. it stil shows me 4 drives
all being 75GB.. wierd ?
