Thanks again!  I followed the links from above to the Promise web site

http://www.promise.com/support/download/download2_eng.asp?productId=88&category=All&os=100

grabbed the "Partial Linux Source Code", compiled it as instructed,
loaded the new module and can now see the mirrored RAID array as
/dev/sda just like on the Red Hat machine.  Thanks so much!  The new
"scsi" disk is now formatted and mounted under Debian!
