Which ID you use for your partition? If 83 (linux native) it's wrong. You have to use fd (linux raid auto) Of course you can start to install at first hda1, hda2 and hda3 and then start with your RAID partitions. There is also an HOWTO explaining how to create a RAID solution from an existing system.[...] hda1 - /boot hda2 - / hda3 - swap hde/g raid set - /var hde/g raid set - /home that's why i asked if it would be possible/advisable to first install debian to hda1,2,3 then add the RAID1 set, format/mount it and move /var & /home over to it. So far I've found out I need to use the 2.4 kernel and set the ATA card IDE's at boot with "Boot: bf24 ide2=0x6200,0x6302,11 ide3=0x6400,0x6502,11" where ide2=[start IO address],[end IO address],[IRQ]. reading reading reading & getting confused, lol
