Well i've seen, and got the following problem/issue with several RH and FC releases, so i'm wondering what the story is behind it.. i got a few machines with an S-ata raid controller (Silcon sil3114 and Promise fasttrak s150 tx4) and if i use the standard, drivers/modules from the RH distro. the drives in the array (0, 1 or 0&1) are shown as sepperate drives in the anaconda/setup from Rh/FC not the array's i defined in the bios setup from these raid controllers. so basicly the whole idea of useing a raid system, get's lost.. now i have an original raid module from promise, and this works fine (just 1 raid array, as defined in the raid bios) but now with this new Silcon sil3114, the same problem is back again.. i configed an raid 1 array in the bios, but when i run the setup of FC2, there were 2 seperate drives again, bye bye raid array...!??? what is this raid problem/issue with linux ?? can somebody explain this to me, or give me some good hinds/tips where to get an good raid driver/module for my S-ata sil3114 chip l8r --------------------------------------------- Collen Blijenberg (Systeem/Netwerk Beheerder) Montessori Lyceum Herman Jordan Zeist - The Netherlands..
