I have the same problem as reported by Ralf, it's still there in the Sarge
Snapshot of 12. Feb. 2005, with initrd-tool 0.1.77.
I was trying to install on a Dell PowerEdge 2850, with PERC 4e/Di RAID
Controller.
The problem appears only when installing with kernel 2.4.
When using kernel 2.6 for installation, the megaraid driver is not able to
detect any logical drives in the RAID at all! :-((
Kind Regards,
Ben
