Abit AB9 Pro motherboard

I've got an Abit AB9 Pro motherboard with

* Intel® P965 / ICH8R Chipset

Internal I/O

* 1 x Ultra DMA 100/66/33 IDE connector

but, the UDMA connector is in JMicron® JMB363 controller.... I've downloaded many linux distributon, (Suse 10.2/Ubuntu 6.10/Slackware11), but anyone of them won't be able to boot... (or starting the installer...)

What Linux Distribution support by default my chipset/JMicron Controller ?

In my experience (ASUS P5B mobo - quite similar to yours): Fedora Core 6, Mandriva 2007.1, Debian Etch (recent builds), Sabayon 3.26 and up, Ubuntu 6.10, PCLinuxOS 2007.
