[... patch CD with SATA support ...]
first of all I would like to thank You for that!
2nd question is, does this only enable use of SATA drives (controlller) or will this support the RAID function as well (talking about the VIA)?
The VIA and most other SATA RAID controllers are really software RAID. Linux doesn't usually support the format used by the Windows driver, but you can run the normal linux software MD RAID which works just fine. The few real SATA RAID controllers like 3ware are supported. -Andi
