Do I have to include anything else than this??
<*> ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL support IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices --> <*> PROMISE PDC202{68|69|70|71|75|76|77} support (NEW) [*] Special FastTrack Feature
<*> Support for IDE Raid Controllers (EXPERIMENTAL) <*> Support Promise software RAID (Fasttrak(tm)) (EXPERIMENTAL) /Nicke

Not sure what else to tell you. If the pdcraid driver is compiled into the kernel, you'll get a message about it during boot, even if it can't find all the drives. I no longer use the 2.4 kernel series (or pdcraid), so I'm afraid I'm out of ideas. Maybe somebody else on the list has some other things to try. Sorry.
