Hello,
A visitor asked me last week how to install linux as double boot on a windows 10 *raid* hpz230.
the raid is a firmware raid, not a software one, present on the motherboard.
on the spot I was not able to make openSUSE to see the raid 1 two disks presents on the system.
YaST-install sees two disks, but can't configure the free space (locked obviously by the raid software).
However, these computers are SLES/SLED compatible

however, I don't see any suse/linux specific data on the raid config page
https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02815117
any clue?
(I don't have the computer at hand, but I expect the user to come again soon)
I have always had to disable the raid in the bios. But, subsequently I remove *all* of windows and reformat. I make a backup of the windows install in case I decide to return the computer. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet oftc
