OK I had a little more complex situation with one IDE and two SCSI drives for my example. I used diskdrake during install to set everything up and I have no problem even though / is on a RAID5. That was on a Compaq Professional Workstation 5000 with dual PPro 200/512s. I think we need to discover how your system is different. I never had trouble with a reboot. Check your /etc/modules.conf Make sure that the scsi driver is the FIRST thing loaded. If the raid is loaded first, it may have nothing to reference and get autocleaned though that would be quirky in my POV. Civileme
