Arjan and I had an exchange on Saturday off-list. Here's a recap of our conclusions: When the Promise BIOS loads, I am told my config is ID MODE 1* 1+0 Span Which apparently means I am using a RAID mode which Arjan's driver does not support. End of ataraid story I guess, since at that point Arjan lost interest in me ;-) As far as I can tell I'm going to be without the data on this array for some time, unless I physically rip the device out and place it into an older redhat box. I would be happy to downgrade to the kernel in RH7.1 and simply insmod Promise's ft.o driver, but that kernel would not be able to access all the ext3 filesystems I migrated to during the upgrade. So basically it looks like I shot myself in the foot royally here. Must I really resign myself to waiting for Promise to release a ft.o which works on RH7.2? Thanks for any assistance. -Darren
