I checked and the motherboard does use a Hightpoint RAID controller. I am
about to update the BIOS to the latest Highpoint BIOS. Do the problems with
RAID occur when using Mirroring only? The mirroring should not affect the
drive size (my HD's are identical). What is the procedure for removing one
HD during install and then re-adding it? How safe is this (read: what are
the odds I will lose my data :)?
Thank you,
~Wynne

hi wynne,
the problem might be the raid-controler. I guess this is a highpoint,
which is not fully supurted by linux, specialy during installation. If
you need to use the riad-system, you can try to install LM8 on the
first hd, which means within the size of the first hd. Unfortunatetly I
did not found any solution, that fits on all systems, we had a two
pcs with the same controler but diferent hds, one works fine, the
other didn't work at all. If you do not generally need the
raidsupport, don't use it as hardware but as the linux-software raid
after instalation. Best luck.
