i don't think the problem is your south bridge.  very few
of them need to be recognized, so they aren't.  the problem
is likely that you need the vid/did of the ide controller in
your motherboard added to the ata driver.  if you have
a system on which you can compile a kernel, try applying
this diff

; diffy -c /sys/src/9/pc/sdata.c
/n/dump/2008/0229/sys/src/9/pc/sdata.c:1960,1965 - /sys/src/9/pc/sdata.c:1960,1968
  			r = pcicfgr8(p, 0x46);
  			pcicfgw8(p, 0x46, (r & 0x0C)|0xF0);
  			/*FALLTHROUGH*/
+ 		case (0x7401<<16)|0x1022:	/* AMD 755 Cobra */
+ 		case (0x7409<<16)|0x1022:	/* AMD 756 Viper */
+ 		case (0x7410<<16)|0x1022:	/* AMD 766 Viper Plus */
  		case (0x7469<<16)|0x1022:	/* AMD 3111 */
  			/*
  			 * This can probably be lumped in with the 768 above.

if you don't contact me offline and we'll figure something out.
