humm you can`t. You have to patch your current kernel or try a developpement kernel.<br />
What you can do is plug your hd on the ata33 controlleur (you have 2 connectors for ata66 and 2 ata33)<br />
install linux.<br />
after installation patch/upgrade kernel<br />
in the kernel config /usr/src/linux/make menuconfig<br />
under ide controlleur enable udma i think the controlleur abit use is hptsomething.. look in the motherboard manual or web site<br />
compile and install the new kernel<br />
after that shutdown plug your hd on the ata66<br />
and it should work (done it my self but on an off-board card promise66)<br />
<br />
you can also try the boot disk promise give me (<a href="http://www.promise" rel="ugc">www.promise</a>)<br />
it work well for redhat6.0... dont known for your motherboard<br />
Good Luck!

I failed to install redhat 6.0 to my computer because it<br />
does not recognize my Ultra 66 hard drive.<br />

How can I activate Ultra DMA suport in linux so that I can<br />
succesfully install redhat6.0 to my computer?<br />
