I'm building a system with an ASUS P4C800 Delux mb which has an onboard Promise PDC20378 controller chipset. I've read the discussions on this list from last spring about Gentoo and Promise raid, but am still having trouble, and everything I can find on google indicates that a lot of people are having the same problems and that solutions are hard to come by.
I'm trying to get at the RAID array from the livecd, v1.4-20030911. modprobe ataraid - works OK modprobe pdcraid - fails According to what I've read, there were problems with the Promise raid driver in kernel 2.4.19 but the livecd uses 2.4.21. I can fall back on Linux software raid, but it'd really rather not have to deal with the boot issues involved. One of the reasons I paid the extra $$ for this mb was because it had the onboard hw raid. I guess it's what I get for trying to use bleeding edge hardware with Linux, I guess :( Has anyone made any progress on this problem? -- Lindsay Haisley | "Everything works | PGP public key FMP Computer Services | if you let it" | available at 512-259-1190 | (The Roadie) | <http://www.fmp.com/pubkeys> http://www.fmp.com | | -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
