Problems booting with ABIT BH6 and AHA2940U2W

[This isn't a 2940U2W driver question, but it relates to using
 a U2W card with linux so I hope it qualifies.]

Hi All,

Recently upgraded to a PII system, however now I can't
boot straight from the Hard Disk. It always gives a
'no active partition' found error.

I can boot off a floppy just fine. I've run lilo and
it writes the MBR as normal. (In fact I pulled the controller
and HDD out of another PC where it was working perfectly.)

Has anyone else experience this problem?

   -Greg
