Hi,

I've posted this in the foruns but it appears no one answers, so I decided to 
try in here...

I've been trying to install a gentoo box with software RAID1 for about four 
days now... No success...

I had all sorts of problems, at first I started using reiserfs and when I got 
filesystem corruption, I thought it was reisersfs' fault, but now I'm using 
ext3 and I have the same problem. I ran badblock on both disk and 
nothing... :(

I think that the problem is most likelly the serial ata controller, the 
infamous si3112.

I have tried gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.1, gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.2 and both gave 
me filesystem corruption. My installation was from scratch from gentoo 2004 
live cd with kernel 2.4.24.

The hardware is:
Asus a7n8x 2.0 with si3112
2* Seagate 160GB.

I have seen some info on this regarding some patches, but only to older 
versions of the kernel...

I know some lads must have this kickin'... I just need a kick in the but to 
get this working too, most likelly...

But I really apreciate all the help I can get...
Because every time I'm hit with filesystem corruption, I have to start 
all-over... Which takes me about a full day or so to test something...

Thanks in advance,
        Tiago Lima
