What Happened to ABIT's Gentus Linux?

Evangelion asks: "Earlier this year, Slashdot reported on ABit's own Linux Distro, Gentus Linux (and thier subsequent violation of the GPL). Well, whatever happened to them? Thier website seems to be non-existent at the moment. I'm asking as I've found myself in a rather irritating situation: as a recent purchaser of ABit's fine KT7-RAID motherboard, I have discovered that the IDE RAID controller on it isn't well supported in Linux, in that it can't actually do RAID, only single drives. How this relates to Gentus Linux is that it was supposed to support IDE RAID with the HPT370, and it was the only distro to actually do so. Does anyone know of any confirmation or denial to this? What happened to Gentus Linux? Did it get canned after the GPL issues? More to the point, is there any way I can get my RAID controller working in Linux?"
