libata is always "installed" as it comes with the kernel...the OP is confusing hardware raid ( a fake raid to be precise) with software raid.
My recommendation is, disable the "hardware raid" in the BIOS because it is NOT a real hardware RAID,in plain old english it is a piece of crap attached to your mainboard nicely promoted by the marketing department of the the motherboard vendor,to which you shouldn't trust your data.
After that use software raid in userspace.
Cheers.
That was already pointed out. But disabling hardware raid might not be wise, as you will probably lose all the data on the device, as I also pointed out. Never the less, its not clear why Knopix could see it and not Opensuse, and it is still not clear from his posting if Opensuse saw the device at all. It might have shown it as a single disk drive, which is not all that uncommon with hardware raid, or even fakeraid. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
