Hello, I am back to working on my IDE RAID issue (along with half a dozen other problems...). When I install Suse 7.1 it sees all the drives in the RAID configuration as separate disks and it displays the correct size for each disk. Looks like I need to update the motherboard BIOS and/or manually install and configure the RAID driver. Does that make sense? Babu --- StarTux <matthew@psychohorse.com> wrote:

Martin,
With a machine with only a RAID configured array, if I am running Yast2, how do I get the installer to ask me to provide the AMI raid drivers? I think I can get the compiled drivers, but what is the method to load them with no linux currently running?

This should be automatic and be treated like any other SCSI card during the install. How Linux will see it depends upon the array, for example Raid 1 you will see only 1 drive.
Have you tried the installer? You can go through this and see if it even sees the drives. You should not need to do anything more, unless you have an old BIOS revision and newer device drivers.
