Key things to look for in menuconfig for Rocket133 might be:

(D)evice drivers
--> ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support
--> --> SCSI emulation support
--> --> generic/default IDE chipset support
--> --> PCI IDE chipset support
--> --> Generic PCI IDE Chipset Support

Probably the only one that matters is (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366=y):

--> --> HPT36X/37X chipset support (turn this ON as BUILT-IN)

Yes, the Rocket 133SB (Rocket133SB) HPT302 chip is apparently supported 
by the HPT366.c file. You can find this by grepping the kernel sources:

# cd /usr/src/linux
# find . -print | xargs grep -i 'hpt302'
# grep -i 'hpt366' .config
