Still 20265

Hi

I got a little bit further with my problems.

I use a WD utility to write zeros to the both my 80Gb disks and the I
created the array with the promise controller and installed with noprobe

When it got to diskdruid is asks if ist should initialize sda, hde and
hdg. I answered only yes to sda, and the installed worked fine and fast
too.

After reboot the bootsequence stopped at the promise controller, and I had
to reboot and then rerbuild the mirror. After rebuilding I could boot
until right after the partitions were checked, then it seems lilke it
looses connection to one of the drives, as I had to reboot and rebuild the
mirror again. The problem is always the disk on channel1. No matter if I
swap disks.

I then turned the mirror in to two 1-disk-stripes and now it boots fine on
sda.
Can I turn sda and sdb into a linux softarray at this point. I have only
tried to do it during install.

In both situations i get an dependency error on boot that some symbols in
FastTrak.o failed.

Do I have a defective 20265 or what's haunting me?.. I have changed the
cables and tried some other discs.
