Is ATA/66 Supported by Linux?

I've finally upgraded from my old Packard Bell 486 to a PIII 500Mhz machine
with a UDMA66 (ATA66) hard drive controller.  I am attempting to install
SUSE 6.1 and the installation reports no hard drive found.  Is there a
module for UDMA66?  Is it supported?  I checked around some Linux FAQs,
Hardware lists etc and didn't see any mention of UDMA66.   The chipset is
Intel HPT366 Ultra ATA/66 (embedded on the BE6 Motherboard by Abit).  Do I
have to intall as standard IDE hard drive?   Any help would be appreciated.
