You didn't follow the instructions.

Quoting from the original post:

* Use the on-board controller for the installation.
* Compile a custom kernel with the Promise driver, making sure to select the
  option "Boot from off-board IDE chipsets first".
* dd the kernel onto a floppy.
* Reconnect the drive to the Promise controller.
* Boot from that floppy.

For instructions on compiling a custom kernel, read ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/Kernel-HOWTO
