Did you:
<*> AMD Viper support
"This driver adds explicit support for AMD-7xx and AMD-8111 chips and also
for
the nVidia nForce chip. This allows the kernel to change PIO, DMA and UDMA
speeds and to configure the chip to optimum performance."
dmesg | grep NFORCE

hmmm...
dmesg | grep NFORCE
NFORCE2: IDE controller at PCI slot 00:09.0
NFORCE2: chipset revision 162
NFORCE2: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
(kernel 2.4.21 vanilla, no binary nforce driver)

but 2.4.20 won't compile with gcc 3.3 - but that's a different story
