the sata_sil in 2.6.2-rc2 has sil 3114 support but is marked correctly
in my opinion as broken.
the ide siimage patch which is working well for me with one disk on
2.6.2-rc2 is here against 2.6.0-test11:

i integrated the siimage patch into the kernel 2166 rpms available here:

i didnt have time to test them yet, tho. if you can test them let me
know. if i get more info and have time i'll see about respinning the
distro as justin earlier suggested.
