Your mileage may vary.  To be sure, get either promise or Intel.  In

Oh good.  We just got a P4 machine with an Intel mobo to be used as a
server, and that's where I'll first try IDE raid using just mobo IDE.

I just hope the new Intel motherboards (i845 chipset) are fully
supported by the latest Linux kernel, not only in the IDE controller
area.

Thanks!

Good luck Julien!

I have a Epox 4G4A+ containing i845G chipset. Also have the cheap promise IDE raid controller. Tried installing redhat 8.0 and failed to boot the kernel. Tried Installling redhat 7.3 and failed to boot the kernel. Tried Installing redhat 7.2 and failed to boot the kernel. Tried installing redhat 7.1 but wont boot after installation. I've given up on the setup already. Can't possibly be a hardware problem as I was able to install Win2000 Advanve Server at RAID1 configuration.
