i also have a patched linux-2.4.2-ac20 tree for my own use at ftp://acid.ch.pw.edu.pl/pub/sq5bpf/linux-2.4.2-ac20+dpt.tar.gz that supports dpt smartraid V (i found a patch for 2.4.0-pre6 and hand patched it in). it seems to work with my ISP2150 (didn't crash yet :), after compiling with egcs 1.1.2 (some people warned about using anything else than gcc 2.7.2.3).
the only caveat is that if you set the ramsize 49152, root flags to 0 etc so it loads a floppy after a prompt, the dpt controller (and eepro100 that was also compiled in) gets initialised _after_ the root floppy is loaded. i'm not sure if this is a bug with the dpt patch or with the original kernel (will check tomorrow).
