Just check on the other threads about the topic RAID in this list's
archive.
Fedora does not recognize your RAID array as one. This is a most common
problem as those IDE RAID adapters (onboard or with PCI card) are "fake"
RAID adapters, software RAID with BIOS support, but no real hardware
RAID. So you at least need a fitting driver module for it which is
brand, model and kernel specific.
