Exactly. Problem is, Customer just got 5 of these shiny new 1U rack servers which are ohh so cool because they got RAID and everything... Exactly the right thing for their e-whatever-solution we are programming for them... When I saw that these things were not SCSI as promised but IDE I thought "WTF?". After I saw the IDE chipset it was "sheeeeshhh". Because unfortunately I've got the Fastrak (thank $DEITY with 20267 chipset - less bugs) at home and was already "well aware" of their shortcomings... Now, after I heard the ataraid (Help me Arjan Van de Ven, you are my only chance - Guess the movie!) driver does only raid-0 it was "Eeeeeekkkkkkkkk!" Anyway, we just told the customer, result: "What?" > Next time it's a hardware raid so noone will see how this > "disk" is configured. It's either that or waiting till ataraid supports mirroring... :-/ bye, andreas
