This chip is not currently supported by Fedora Core.  You would basically
have to merge a patch, rebuild the kernel rpms, then rebuild the distro.
It is easier than it sounds, but  I am not sure on the current stability of
that driver, when libata was last merged, it was broken on a large
percentage of systems.
