[ILUG] RH 6.1 and LPS-120 drive trouble

 I have a dual boot RedHat 6.1 box here which fails to recognise an LPS-120
 drive. Works fine under Windows, though. I'm pretty sure this worked on
 the same machine under RedHat 5.2 (the drive was replaced since, but I
 don't see what else could have changed).

 Wheneer I'm trying to access /dev/hdd (major 22 minor 64), I get

Can't open /dev/hdd: Device not configured

 This is some dmesg output:

Feb 14 12:49:22 box kernel: PIIX4: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 39
Feb 14 12:49:22 box kernel: PIIX4: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later

 Very suspicious. Before cut 'n waste, this was a y with two dots, ie.
 some unprintable character.

 Any ideas?
