Er...
Okay, I don't fiddle with RAID much, but those instructions are for the 2.4.6 kernel, and support for the HPT370 is in the kernel now, has been for a while, and is in 2.4.18 which you're running. If you've got /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/ide/ataraid.o.gz you don't need to patch up to build a new one.
I'm currently running the machine I'm typing on off of that controller, works great, apparently has a flaky BIOS for hardware RAID though, might want to check Highpoint for an upgrade. (I'm just using it as an ATA100 controller, not enough cash for more disk).
Cheers,
Finegan
