If you'd googled for debian promise raid, you'd have seen my page.
http://www.antgel.co.uk/compsci/linux/promise_raid.shtml  Hope it
helps.  As an aside, you may wish to not configure the Promise RAID BIOS
and do all yout RAIDing from Linux.  It is more difficult that way - if
you search the archives of this list, you'll see that you need to tread
_very_ carefully.
