Hi Curtis, Dunno if this is the same problem as mine (I have an ASUSTek P4B-E with onboard Promise Raid Lite configured with 2 x 30Gb HD from which I run Linux) but, in the vague hope that it will help I'll repost it :-) Essentially they (their support documentation) explained to me that both the two drives AND the virtual (HW Raid) drive are seen by Linux as (hde/hdg and /dev/ataraid/d0 respectively) and that the work around is to go through YaST2 (using cfdisk or fdisk didn't seem to work), partition it manually (no joke for an aging windows techy ... haha) save that (which I did by starting the install & ignoring the generated errors), abort & restart and do it again and then it remembers. The restart is the essential aspect, the system needs to do this to accept the new partition changes and it can't do that via the normal YaST2 install. Hope this helps :-) James James C.
