I need to see your disk configuration. Softwarte RAID, at least linux software RAID does not go by the disk, but rather by the partition.
You set up the initrd to load RAID by putting the RAID drivers names into /etc/modules.conf and running mkinitrd... Read the URL I gave you and you can do this all at install. If you have an IDE RAID controller working on this system you are very lucky to have gotten as far as you did. http://www.civileme.net/Softwaredoc/RAIDdoc.html Civileme
