Version: daily build 7 July 2004
My Silicon Image 3112 SATA RAID controller was detected fine, module
siimage.o is installed ok, and partconf offers me the choice of "IDE5
(hde)" or "IDE6 (hdf)" .
. it notes that both drives have a single partition filling the entire
disk, and it tells me I must delete one of them, and create a linux
partition, before I can install.
It has failed to spot that the two drives form a hardware RAID array,
which contains a WinXP installation and has plenty of space left for
Debian.
This is weird - how come it detects the controller and can talk to the
drives, but it doesn't understand the RAID array? The WinXP driver
managed it ..
Ho hum.
CC
P.S. I have no hard disks on the ATA133 controller, just a pair of DVD
drives (hdb and hdc).
