hi ya rob

first problems....
- raid0/raid1 support is usually "built-in" with no tricks needed...

- you will need the software-raid howto to get more info

	http://ostenfeld.dk/~jakob/Software-RAID.HOWTO/Software-RAID.HOWTO.html

	ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.
	
	http://www.linuxdoc.org 

	if you needed raid5 support...kernel (2.2.16) patches...
	http://people.redhat.com/mingo/raid-patches/raid-2.2.16-A0
	ftp://www.fi.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/raid

- you will need to create /etc/raidtab

than you can worry about patch'g your ide drivers for ata-100

have fun
