Linux won't talk to my Promise caching IDE controller (VLB) that I just got
to upgrade my main Linux box.  I have put 4Mb of RAM on it and it works
fine in Win95 with no modifications.

Linux though refuses to mount the file system (I think the error was 'read
beyond end of device' or something similar).

There is not a specific kernel (I think).

Slackware 3.something with 2.0.0 kernel.
