I remember that on an IDE RAID card I got another device loaded at
install time (md0 I think) as well as the two device types for the individual
drives.
With this SCSI Card / Drives I only see devices for the two seperate
drives, not any unified device.
Out of interest when I went back into the SCSI BIOS after installing
5.4 I noticed in the RAID section that it said "Degraded" next to
the second disc suggesting things werent as they should be.
Should I leave the Host RAID BIOS setting off or are there any other
steps I should have taken ?
Should the installer treat both of these drives together when auto
partitioning (this worked great with the IDE RAID card)
Any advice graciously appreciated
Thanks !
